[QUOTE="i2i, post: 3497132, member: 102748"]Maybe it was supposed to be "9" but 7, 8, 9? ...And got fat! Lol Some will scream post mint damage. However, they seem to not understand that post mint damage can flatten but it cannot add "mass". This "7" is large and equivalently raised as the other "7". So, only 2 choices: - some of the die chipped away and left a larger "7" when the planchet was struck. - or, less likely, there was an die prep error causing a class IV doubling with only one device being doubled.
