BStrauss3 Pillar of the Community United States 4589 Posts	Posted 11/06/2024 1:31 pm No. It's a tiny bit off-center (both sides) but within specs. Learn: The rim is not struck by the die. A proto-rim is formed on the blank (creating the planchet) by an upsetting mill. The rim is then formed during the strike in the gap between the collar and the die inside the striking chamber. If you look at a die (e.g. here https://sullivannumismatics.com/pro...celled-die/) you will see the small chamfer. -----Burton 50+ year / Life / Emeritus ANA member (joined 12/1/1973) Life member: Numismatics International, CONECA Member: TNA, FtWCC, NETCC, EveryCountry (online) coin club Owned by three cats and a wife of 40+ years (joined 1983) Author: 3rd Edition of the Sample Slabs book, https://www.sampleslabs.info/ Report this Post to the Staff

It's a variety. It's a completely different category. http://doubleddie.com/58222.html Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8738 Posts	Posted 11/07/2024 07:59 am I'm leaning towards the coin having been in a bezel or encased at some point, it looks too consistent on both sides all the way around the coin. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
