<p>[QUOTE=&quot;non_cents, post: 1969130, member: 30970&quot;]If you learn the minting process of coins, it should be evident that this coin did not leave the mint looking like this. </p><p><br /></p><p>People mess with coins for lots of reasons. I am in no way implying that YOU did so. But someone between the year 1974 and 1988 decided to take this one and squeeze another coin together with it. Why they did this is unknown. Maybe they were just trying to make it look cool, or maybe they were trying to pass it off as a genuine error to make a quick buck. But one way or another it got back into circulation and made its way into your hands.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry to break the bad news. It certainly looks cool but unfortunately it is not a mint-made error. We often call them &quot;vice jobs&quot; or &quot;squeeze jobs&quot; and they appear quite often on the forum because they stand out compared to a normal coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Do research and read up on websites and you will have the knowledge to pick out errors in no time. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
