ccg Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 Is the coin the regular diameter, or larger? Is it reeded as usual? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccg Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 And are the letters raised or incuse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddio Posted June 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 they are incuse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccg Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Frankly, I'm stumped on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsraghead Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Whats the chances of the planchet being misstruck and then put back in there for the correct strike? That would explain the marks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccg Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Whats the chances of the planchet being misstruck and then put back in there for the correct strike? That would explain the marks  The details (letters) would be raised in that case, and not incuse.  My first thought is that the coin after being minted was struck on the edge with another coin (e.g. post mint damage) but the orientation of the letters would be the other way around.

eddio Posted June 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 yes your are right ccg a coin dealer told me that it looks like double struck brok.but he is still scratching his head on how it would happen..its probably pmd i will treat it like that until i find out otherwise,,but its neat and i like a lot..
