<p>[QUOTE="mcharvet, post: 300809, member: 10738"]I came across this copper. It is obviously completely screwd up <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> It is suppose to be a braided hard large one cent. My question is - how did a coin like this come to be - is it someone practicing making fakes OR is it some type of planchet error or something done by the mint? I was thinking it may also be done by the mint for testing out copper planchets. If so - any value?

[QUOTE="mcharvet, post: 300809, member: 10738"]I came across this copper. It is obviously completely screwd up :-) It is suppose to be a braided hard large one cent. My question is - how did a coin like this come to be - is it someone practicing making fakes OR is it some type of planchet error or something done by the mint? I was thinking it may also be done by the mint for testing out copper planchets. If so - any value? Thanks in advance photos below!
