[QUOTE="gxseries, post: 1824545, member: 4373"]I have been hiding away doing a lot of things and this is one of them - I have been cataloging what coins I have in my collection. This is a rather niche market to collect and I just have to get my head stuck in this. Think it's a really really bad habit of mine. For those who don't know what overstruck means, it means using an old coin instead of a fresh new planchet to be struck as a 'new' coin. The result is that it may have traces of the old design under the newly struck coin. Here are some of my favorites: [img]http://omnicoin.com/coins/1022881.jpg[/img] [img]http://omnicoin.com/coins/1022062.jpg[/img] [img]http://omnicoin.com/coins/1016444.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.omnicoin.com/coins/988922.jpg[/img] The rest of my collection can be seen here: [url]http://gxseries.com/numis/overstrike/world_overstrike.htm[/url] Please feel free to show some of your awesome overstruck coins![/QUOTE]
