Ham New Member Australia 2 Posts	Posted 09/11/2024 12:54 am Hello! Does anyone know if the discolouration on this 2009 $2 is a minting error? Its so perfectly centered and round! Its about the same size as the smaller centers on some of the coloured $2's. Also it seems to go over the indigenous elder but under the '2'. Curious. Report this Post to the Staff

coaster Pillar of the Community Australia 1364 Posts	Posted 09/11/2024 04:28 am Hi Ham and I can't see how this could have occurred in the minting process. Being centred and round would just be coincidental as coloured $2 coins didn't appear until 2012. There does however appear to be a small lamination error on the obverse.

Ham New Member Australia 2 Posts	Posted 09/11/2024 06:47 am Oooooo Coaster, a lamination error! Interesting, thank you! I didn't even really look at the obverse! And glue, I like that theory...that'd make more sense than a minting error. Thanks all! I'm new to collecting, as a little hobby, and so far loving it!! Report this Post to the Staff
