Yes i know this is a machine error .. A ANACS PROFESSIONAL says send to Dr. Close , so you Pro Vammer say No .

whom said no?

i re-read the thread and didn't see anyone say that.

If the reeding is otherwise normal (coin struck fully in collar) and there's additional reeding on the rim, it would be a collar clash, where the hammer die hit the collar die before striking this coin. It should be noted that initially, the collar clash is caused by vertical/horizontal misalignmen...

nice!

what a neat error to add.

since this is deep into page 4 of this thread...

i will share with the group the highly technical and complicated process of what happened to the die.

looking forward to see where this is going ! :) I'll probably list it as new. Waiting to hear from other 79-S specialists. The bit pointed to in the R above is just a hit on the coin. are the die(s) previously unknown or just a new die state/features? on a separate subject, kinda. if a die is used ...

looking forward to see where this is going!

@pup_picker

Fantastic!
Thank you

you're welcome.

i've always liked finding resources that giants from the past leave behind that we all may enjoy.

my hope is that we all may be so fortunate to do the same for those to come...

I got a quick reply to my email. He said that the book is rare and out of print. I guess that I will have to pony up. https://nnp.wustl.edu/library/book/559683 https://nnp.wustl.edu/library/book/559678 https://nnp.wustl.edu/library/book/559677 https://nnp.wustl.edu/library/book/559675 if you change...

I do not have the coin in hand. The angle of the lighting in the photo may have gotten me. I do suffer from dyslexia occasionally.

numismatically, does that mean you see things raised that are lowered and visa versa? should make coins quite interested!

All this Gobblygook is why i have no idea how to do pictures and to frustrating for me to even start learning. Unfortunately im a closed book, and it really sucks as good pics would allow me to sell tons of my great morgans myself. Did do Fleabay but results poor due to terrible pics. Guess i best ...

agree. nice retained cud.

roger's ms60 coin must be a beaut.

if you don't get an exact answer of what you are looking for, Doug Winters should have something very in-depth for any gold series. also, if you don't get a great answer here, ask on ngc or pcgs forum. you'd surely get some wonderful and effective responses. i saw some books recently that winters co...

Thanks to all for the replies. I appreciate putting this to bed so quickly. To JB's point, apparently multiple appearances of the same coin is what got me. Must be occluded gas bubbles in the planchet. But regardless, your replies kept me from an even wilder goose chase. do you have that coin in-ha...

i've used the same one for many many years. it comes with silverlight as part of windows image program upgrade.

it is photo gallery on steroids.


if you should so choose to accept this mission, here is what it looks like. enjoy

fwiw i checked several 85-s v6 auction appearances in unc with nothing. it would make sense the coin in the OP is just contact considering how much contact that are of that coin has. nothing wrong with keeping your eyes peeled for another example but unlikely and to look at the coin in-hand would wr...

for my part, i'm not saying it is real or fake but fwiw, there are quite a few error coins out there known for struck through whatever with the whatever piece residing with the main part. pretty sure i've seen dozens at least AND i've seen at least a few smaller denoms struck through larger denoms a...

Like I said, can't put my finger on it. But just because I'm suspicious doesn't mean it's bad. I'm supposed to react to the extraordinary with skepticism.

whaddya think. wb-2. clash lines at liberties drapery. only a few mm are tucked up that far, at that angle.

shoo weee

gotta be one of the best modern clashers out there!
