being curious, I have now received the coin pictured on ebay. at first I was convinced it was PMD however on extensive and detailed study I believe (not sure of correct terminology) that a small piece of metal has peeled from the face of the coin as the die retreated, possibly leaving behind what went on to become Cud on subsequent 2001 50c coins

edit: the area of the "peel" is in the yellow "A" box in this thread.

I was never convinced that this was an error and was highly suspicious that it was PDM... however I have just received one almost identical (if anything this one has a deeper "peel" where the "ALIA" should have been) to the one I picked up on ebay... As Yass and other have also found them I am definitely calling it a "peel" of some type and confirmed as a mint error.
