    Hi everbody

    Today in change a got the best error coin I have ever seen.

    It is a dime struck on a nickel planchet using nickel dies. The obverse is also rotated 360 degrees.

    Does anyone know what I should do with this???

    Thanks in advance.

    Howdy WildCoinz - Welcome to the Forum !!

    Now, I'm a bit confused by your description. What exactly do you have ? If it was struck on a nickel planchet, using nickel dies - then it's a nickel. But you say it's a dime :confused:

    Can you post a picture of this coin ?

    As well as, a rotation of 360 degrees will just bring it back to what it is supposed to be... do you mean 180 degrees?

    Hey Doug, you are playing along with his joke, right? If you would like to see a picture I have one of that exact same error that I can show you:

    [​IMG][​IMG]
    This coin was rotated around its verticle axis (side-to-side) to show off its 360 degree obverse rotation.

    And here is a $2 note that I got from my bank with both sides printed upside down ;)
