<p>[QUOTE=&quot;davidh, post: 492267, member: 15062&quot;]The Jefferson apparently was fully struck but then not ejected from the press before the next planchet came in.&nbsp; The hammer die then struck the planchet on top of the previously struck nickel and partially tilted the nickel out of the collar producing the raised and doubled edge seen opposite the blank area, while at the same time obliterating the majority of the previously struck design.&nbsp; This second striking of the pair did not leave any second impression on the originally struck coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s like if this dime was struck on top of a dime still in the collar.&nbsp; The portion of the already struck dime covered by the illustrated error would have been flattened out with its details almost obliterated. </p><p><img src="http://www.coinworld.com/images/NewCollector/errors/e-offcenter-s.gif" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
