    Russian 20 Kopeks HI
    this has a nice clash seen on both obverse and reverse.
    Plus multiple die cracks. IMG_0001_2.JPG IMG_0002_1.JPG Some close ups of the clashing. IMG_0006.JPG IMG_0007.JPG

    Bought it for melt, you can't go wrong making the dealer left 20 to 50+ on the table.

    Can I consider the letter V missing on the obverse as an error on this 1874 Portugal V cents (rare variety with foot on the base of the number 4 on the date)? If not, at least there is another error on the reverse (around the S of LUDOVICUS)

    I'd say that's a greaser/ filled die.

    Thank you @Pickin and Grinin. But see what I just find on these two Brazilian coins (5 and 10 centavos). Both have the date inverted minted on the reverse but the 10 centavos have doubled die inverted minted. I cannot believe!!!
    These two are very rare, but I've never seen one with doubled die inverted on the reverse.

    At least to me, when the date not appears this way 1994 (in example) but appears as seen through mirror it's inverted. Isn't it??
    My son just tell me the correct phrase: upside down. He understand english a lot more than me.

    Do you mean recessed into the coin?

    I mean that the date (originally minted on the obverse) was minted again on the reverse side of the coin, upside down, exactly behind the date on the obverse. It is the most I can say in your language imagining you understand what I try to say.

    My bad I see it. Very cool.
    That would be called a clash.
    The dies struck each other without a planchet.

    Yes!!! Thank you for the help on this kind of error. I will note on the coin holder to don't forget it.

    I wasn't thinking that the date was incuse, which would make a raised impression in the event of a clash.
    Cool Variety's!

    These VOC coins appear to me to be errors. The 1788 Holland has the edge folded over and the 1790 Zeeland was struck kind of off center. I believe these were made on screw presses. 1788 H VOC 1 d obv (2).JPG 1788 H VOC 1 d rev (2).JPG 1790 Z VOC 1 d obv.JPG 1790 Z VOC 1 d rev.JPG

    These are seller photos as this is a recent pickup. It appears there is something going on on the rim from 1 to 3 o'clock on the obverse and 9 to 11 o'clock on the reverse. Perhaps the remnants of a third strike (though not third sequentially)? I'll have to see it in hand.
