<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1712100, member: 66&quot;]I agree with Hobo that this is a double struck off-center but I have a slightly different explanation of how it occurred.&nbsp; The first strike was well off center.&nbsp; On the second strike was&nbsp; more on center but there was also a blank planchet between the reverse of the coin and the reverse die.&nbsp; The additional pressure allowed the obverse die to wipe out all or almost all of the first obv strike.&nbsp; On the reverse the first strike impressed itself into the blank planchet causing some distortion but preserving the details.&nbsp; Between the edge of the first strike and the edge of the second we see the indentation of the blank planchet.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
