davebob Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 Hi Im new to this amazing hobby.. And especially error coins. I have a "1939 B 20 Rappen" from Switzerland. The C of Confoederatio looks to be not doubled, Quadrupled! The error effects all the letters of this word only. But the C on the very tips you can see four clear impressions. I have heard about doubled dies. Die chattering. Also exists other 1939B with errors. But wondered if any anyone can explain about such errors where 4 individual impressions are visible of one denomination. This coin appears to be in good condition.Having researched a little about whats on offer. It seems quite difficult to obtain clear concise information on swiss coins and grading and mint errors. One of the joys of collecting world coins!!! Is this year of coins actually a "key date" "1939 B 20 Rappen??" And what affect would this error have the coins "Market value" . Unfortunately I cannot at present upload a photo. When i can I will. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davebob Posted January 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 The original image here I can zoom in and see the duplicated denominations. It most clearly obvious on the tips of the C there is Four impressions.. Any ideas how this error was created? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
