    If you're referring to mine, it's commemorating Prince Henry the Navigator. He sponsored the first voyages of the age of discovery when the Portuguese started exploring further down the African coast. The cross was from the Portuguese flag at the time.

    I wish I had my world coins photographed. By the time I searched through my coins, found and shot a couple with years that were coming up soon in the game, all of a sudden you guys sped up play and passed that date! Lol! So, I'm just enjoying your play and commentary. Please, do carry on!

    Argentina 1986 10 Centavo Die Cap

    Argentina 291166_slab.jpg

    This coin got stuck on the die & struck some coins before it fell away from the die.

    In this case, the NGC label is also in error. The coin is 10 centavo and not the 50 Centavo shown on the label. The coin is spread-out to about the size of the 50 centavo piece.

    1985
    1985 flipover 11 cent.jpg
    This is an 11 cent piece. This coin began as a normal dime struck on a normal dime blank. Then it found its way into a mint press that was striking cents. The result is a 1985 cent struck on a 1985 dime.

    Edit: you actually only jumped one year so I guess I can't really get on your case, and I retract my statement about jumping too quickly.

    Then here is a USA 1984:
    1984 Nickel on Cent.jpg
    This error is a double denomination sometimes called a 6 cent piece. It is a struck cent that is then struck as a nickel. In this case, you can easily see the pillars of the Lincoln memorial building across Jefferson's cheek.
