One side is pressed, showing the "tails" side, which depicts the Bluenose The other side, which should have the head of Queen Elizabeth, is completely blank. Also, the outer ridge of the coin is sharp, and there is no edge detail The coin is currently shiny and like brand new. There are no fingerprints or dirt on the coin. Any thoughts on value?

It would hold value yes "to error collectors", but as for how much that is for the economic laws to decide. Did you find it in change ?   05-11-2009, 08:00 AM   #3 (permalink) De Orc P & R COMMISSAR     Join Date: Oct 2005 Location: London.

Remember 1st explaine that it could have happened, then how it happened, then what it is - the modern coining presses will not even operate until both obv. and rev. die are looked in placed. __________________ Benjamin Harrison Peters III Owner/Operator The Knoxville Coin Show Longest running Coin Show in the south now for over 27 years!   05-12-2009, 09:47 AM   #9 (permalink) byrd740 Numismatist     Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Georgia Posts: 1,535 My Mood: Does anyone think it could be a brockage? __________________ Chase A Byrd Coin Collection | www.byrdecoins.tk Member of the ANA, GNA, RCNA and WINSociety Never, Never, Never Quit ~ Winston Churchill   05-12-2009, 10:11 AM   #10 (permalink) LostDutchman exsisto magister     Join Date: Jan 2009 Location: Indianapolis, IN Posts: 1,166 My Mood: Blog Entries: 1 I was just thinking a brockage or a full indent myself __________________ Matt Dinger Lost Dutchman Rare Coins   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Tags canadian, coins, dimes, error Would you like to support CoinTalk?
