The Off Center Nickel is neat. But that's not a Capped Die issue. It's a Uniface Strike. Off Center Strikes: Uniface Definition: An off-center strike in which the coin is struck against an underlying or overlying planchet. The second situation happens less often. In either case, the face struck against the planchet is featureless; the opposite face is die-struck. In an off-center uniface strike, the entire face must be featureless.
3.1 grams, on lower left obv, you can see an indent (slight) and on the rev the wheat stalks weak, all the rest of coin is au. or xf
@john65999 your photos leave much to be desired. Please crop them so that annoying woodgrain background doesn't show. I don't know about others, but I can't tell anything about that cent from your photos. Just saying . . .
The normal weight for a Copper Cent should be 3.11 grams. I don't think you have a Rolled Thin Planchet. What you may have is a Tapered Planchet from what I see. That's a different type of error. The buyers you are purchasing from are giving you the wrong information.
the 1914 was purchased from fred weinberg, and the nickel was from telstarcoin both on ebay..thanks for the corrections
Fred? Haha.. Let me speak to him then. He could of made a mistake on that Cent. Hey nobody is perfect!
Well, there's obviously something there. I guess your right, it doest look like grease filled die on second look. Didn't see that it was on both sides. I'm sure @paddyman98 knows, but I sure dont.
