Rename the file with out the period and I think you will be OK . Rick Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16809 Posts	Posted 07/29/2006 07:24 am It's the brackets, or the combination of space-and-brackets. delete the "%2O"s in the url and replace them with {space}(2) and the picture shows up, but snitz still seems to have trouble reading it when you try to post it as an image or link. Here's the pic, re-named and re-uploaded in my upload area: All part of the service. As to what it is, looks like it's either a die clash or someone's stacked two coins on top of each other and given them a whack. Given the apparently flattened area in the rim, I'd tend to favour the latter opinion, and that it's post-mint damage and not a "mint error". Any other opininons? Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
ml325 New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 07/29/2006 10:40 am Sorry about the mess up with the picture. Now that I look at the coin, I can see a portion of "E Pluribus Unum" and OF America imprinted backwards. Report this Post to the Staff
Becky Pillar of the Community United States 954 Posts	Posted 07/29/2006 7:58 pm I think it's a squeeze job. Post mint damage Report this Post to the Staff
Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 07/29/2006 8:30 pm I agree with squeeze job because the letters are incuse instead of sticking up. So its post mint damage where someone stuck two coins together and squeezed them in a vice or something like that until the one design was on the other coin Report this Post to the Staff
