gxseries Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 First up is an off struck Soviet coin. I've keep hearing rumors about how the Soviet mints had trouble with quality and error coins were common back then. Well I took a while to find an error coin like this: Next one is definitely an error but if you can't guess what it is, the answer is on omnicoin.

thedeadpoint Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 Wow neat shares! I would have figured that quality would have prevented quantity to maintain the pride of a few. As for the second error... is it missing a legend due to a filled die? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saor Alba Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 The second one is a "mule", a coin struck with the wrong reverse or obverse die - ie the coins were minted for 1991 - not 1990. It was obvious because of the dates of the life of Ali Shir Navoi (1441-1501). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
