You've got a double set of very strong clash marks and strong Type I counterclash on the obverse face. A scarce error. If you're interested in...
Condor101 appears to be correct in noting the slight misalignement on the reverse. Horizontal misalignments on both faces simultaneously is...
Your coin was struck by a horizontally misaligned obverse (hammer) die. After reaching the lowest point of its downstroke, the hammer die lurched...
I'd love to buy one, but none have appeared in familiar outlets.
This an alteration known as a "Texas cent". The plating was chemically stripped and the coin was compressed or pounded between two pieces of...
The coin is not a broadstrike. 1985-D dimes are notorious for a poorly struck perimeter, especially on the obverse face. It results from a die...
The coin is heavily damaged. The edge is rounded and a thin apron of metal has been relocated from the edge and rim to the obverse periphery....
It appears that this coin was polished outside the Mint and is not an error. The exceedingly vague letters LI are not consistent with their being...
I reported on a very similar clash in a 1917 half dollar. It was also a tilted die clash in the same area:...
This coin was also posted on the Error Coin Information Exchange. Here's the answer I provided: I have three dimes struck by this...
It's post-strike damage. The incuse, mirror-image letters ST (from TRUST) are contact marks from the obverse of another cent.
The missing statue is usually the result of overzealous die abrasion.
It's not a dryer coin. But it has been abraded outside the Mint and is not an error.
There is little evidence of striations on the reverse face, which would make a split-after-strike error highly unlikely. The finned rim on the...
If the coin weighs the same as a normal cent then the reverse was struck through a split or rolled-thin planchet. Probably the former. So it is...
Looks like a stain or chemical damage to me.
A silver quarter will weigh 6.2 grams. A clad quarter would weigh 5.67 grams. So just arrange for the coin to be weighed.
I said that the proto-rim of the planchet was well-developed. When a blank is sent through the upset mill, it is rolled and squeezed to a smaller...
I've figured out what's going on with this cud. The striking pressure was a tad low, meaning that the coin metal didn't rise very high into the...
It's machine doubling, a.k.a. machine doubling damage, machine damage doubling, mechanical doubling, strike doubling, ejection doubling, shift...
Separate names with a comma.
