I realized this late last night and forgot to come back and mention it. I think this is the simplest, most reasonable explanation. I think the...
Not quite at this stage. I've just presented a working hypothesis hoping that others more well-versed in die clashes would chime in, but my idea...
What specific characteristics of a true doubled die do you think this lacks? Looks good to me.
Oh come on, Kentucky. I'm merely applying the scientific method. Don't conflate me with these guys o_O:hilarious:
Nice find.
Thank you for sharing the video. That is quite interesting. I would think that perhaps this is where a rim burr would get folded over onto the...
I'm not sold either but it's a working hypothesis. A clash mark would be raised, which the mark on my coin is. I experimented to see if I could...
An explanation as to why I thought it may be a rotated (or misaligned?) die clash: I'm not sure the distinction as I am not entirely familiar with...
This one is a bizarre one. I believe the anomalies are clash marks here, but they do not entirely line up with clash overlays of the buffalo...
So fun! Looking forward to some spectacular finds from the beach (manifesting for you).
Excellent photos. Looks like it was underground (env. damage) and not improperly annealed.
I'll give it another night to see if Paddy has some more speculation, otherwise I may repost it under a new title that may capture the attention...
This is a very good question, and definitely not one I am familiar enough with upsetting mill process to answer. In the new pics, it looks like...

I agree that "defective planchet" seems like an umbrella term for a multitude of planchet errors. I have never personally seen it used in this...
Go for it!!! Maybe you'll find something fun
Very interesting. Not sure I am familiar with that specific error type or what would cause it. Could someone send a link or an error ref article...
I see the use in slabbing it, and personally find it very cool.
If it were a copper small date d it would be a major error and worth slabbing, but in this case it's just a spender!
Check out the edge of this Ike dollar. Can you tell me if this is an error? I believe it is and I think I have diagnosed what kind of error it is,...
