[QUOTE="Dan Burby, post: 2136616, member: 74273"]Hello! I have a 2004 5 Euro Cent coin from Belgium which appears to have quite a few errors. I know nothing about non US currency and would really appreciate some input. I will attach the best photos I can. Appears to have laminating/bubbling on both obverse and reverse. Also multiple die cracks, cuds, and possibly severe doubling on King Arthur II forehead. Lastly, the reverse may be rotated 180 degrees. Turning the coin over reveals an upside-down reverse. Perhaps this is standard Euro mint practice? Any information on this coin, value, opinion, anything, greatly appreciated. [ATTACH=full]407660[/ATTACH] Apparent lamination issues/bubbling/peeling on reverse all over. Extremely serious spot covering the top of the "5" left of "Cent". They almost look like tectonic plates. Much more on the obverse below. [ATTACH=full]407661[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]407662[/ATTACH] I wish the photos were better quality. Peeling/bubbling to the northwest of King Arthurs glasses. Forehead doubling. Three distinct cracks, one from right of bubbling, one from second star from the crown icon (counterclockwise) and one, with a cud or chip, from the third star from the date (also counter clockwise). All converge in the center of the head, where there's also a large cud/chip. Totally in the dark here. Thanks! —Dan[/QUOTE]
