[QUOTE="gxseries, post: 2696663, member: 4373"]This is a common alignment "error". The standard was not there at that time. I have gone through at least 100+ of such coins and here is a good example to compare there. They are not the best but you get the idea [img]http://omnicoin.com/coins/930952.jpg[/img] [img]http://omnicoin.com/coins/930953.jpg[/img] Genuine error coin exist and is quite rare. [img]http://omnicoin.com/coins/930963.jpg[/img] The standard way of aligning is using the two dots before and after 1 sen. Some times the dot in between "Great Japan" and "Meiji xx year" is used for alignment. But of course, there are times when the wrong dot is used. The last coin is a perfect example of this. In this case, the second description fits this the best.[/QUOTE]
