This British India quarter anna appears to have a brockage error on the reverse: British India Quarter Anna 1907 Bronze, 25 mm, 4.83 gm, Krause KM 502 The mirror image of the king's head appears on the reverse with the king's nose to the left. Any comments or alternate ideas for the lines on the reverse?
As @furryfrog02 mentioned, that is a clashed die rather than a brockage. I used to confuse the terms in exactly the same way. Here is what an Edward VII quarter-anna brockage looks like. That's a pretty cool clash, though. Quite prominent.
Thank you for the information. By the way, I have had this coin since 1965 when I was a teenager and found it in a coin dealer's foreign coin box.
I collect British India and I’ve seen a few of these 1/4 Annas from Edward VII with die clashes. I don’t know why it was happening but I think they are neat. If I can I’ll dig mine up.
