8realesgt Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 Hi, Can anyone tell me what type of error this is? what is it called? it is clearly marked with another coin. Thanks P.s. I can't get the other side, because of size which has error, too. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vfox Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 It looks like it got struck with another cent already in the dies. I am not sure of the name, but similar to a brockage or is a brockage. In either case, as long as the reverse isn't messed up from it being pressed then I would say it is a legit error, but this is a commonly forged one.

8realesgt Posted June 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Thanks for the answer, I was able to upload the other side of it. So that you may see both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostDutchman Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 it looks like a vice job to me.... where someone took that coin and 2 others and squeezed them together with a vice... to make it look like an error.... in my opinion it is not an error but post mint damage.

Vfox Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 I'm inclined to trust Matts opinion. He has seen many more errors than I have coins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
