<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikediamond, post: 24572360, member: 1859&quot;]This is a counterbrockage/clashed cap strike -- the most common of the eight types of brockage/counterbockage errors (still rare, though).&nbsp; A die cap that was generating mid-stage counterbrockages collided directly with the reverse die when a planchet failed to be fed into the striking chamber.&nbsp; The working face of the die cap picked up an incomplete, raised, die-struck reverse design that overlay the incuse obverse design originally present on the die cap&#039;s working face.&nbsp; The next coin struck after that (the one in the photo) features an expanded, raised, counterbrockage version of the obverse design and an unexpanded, incuse version of the reverse design (a secondary brockage).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
