This 1987 Canadian loony is messed up! The obverse is somehow scribbled! The main problems are in the reverse. The word CANADA and DOLLAR are doubled, also the date is doubled too and the right side of water seems doubled. Different letters are visible between the main letters of CANADA and more important the word CANADA is starting with "G"!!!!! Am I right?
In a word, no. Struck with a well worn die, die deterioration doubling on devices and lots of wear from circulation, IMO. There are no letters between Canada just marks on the coins surface, and the C of Canada is normal. There are two marks above the end of the serif making it look like a G
@Teran If you're going to continue to search for errors, i strongly recommend taking some time to learn the minting and die making process. Here is a link to start https://www.usmint.gov/news/inside-the-mint/how-coins-are-made-coin-production-terminology You're going to find a lot more damaged coins than errors. Even minor errors that have no added value like small die cracks and chips aren't easy to find. The trick is being able to differentiate between a real error and PMD. You've been posting a lot of damaged coins, which isn't a problem. That's how you learn. However, when a consensus of members tell you it's PMD, there is a very high probability it's PMD. If you continually challenge them without providing an explanation of how you believe it occurred during the minting process, you'll just end up on a lot of Ignore lists, and that won't help you learn and grow. Just my opinion trying to help out a new collector.
It's just a loonie that's led a hard life. No errors or variety; just honest wear on both the coin and the die.
