[QUOTE="JBK, post: 35398, member: 1101"]From what I know about the minting process, an „error“ such as thins would be pretty much impossible. If there were no collar, the coin would be larger than normal. If there was a collar in place, the coin would be the proper size, with reeding, I can not imagine a scenario where a fully struck coin with a proper rim (or a little high) would be undersized. My guess is someone was experimenting with tools (maybe some sort of roller or sizer for something.) Could have been rolled between two cylinders. Not sure where you would get a contraption like that, but it would result in this exact thing.[/QUOTE]
