    Shouldn't the image on the left be incuse? It doesn't look like it is.

    Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.

    An eye-appealing and deceiving error! Does not look incused to me either...I have been wrong before.

    Now that is a cool error.... I would really like to know the backstory on coins such as this....Cheers, RickO

    I love how LIBERTY can barely be seen on this, which makes it more visually interesting to me.

    Normally when I study photos like this I can eventually perceive the correct visualization, but for some reason I just can't see it on this one.

    Another error coin that doesn't need a magnifying glass to be seen. My kind of error.

    All glory is fleeting.

    Sold for $3600 (including buyer's fees) in the Heritage error coin auction this evening. I actually won a coin in this auction, probably my first Heritage win in 15 years.

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

    I had some coins on my watchlist but ended up not bidding.

    Mainly because I have other coins on my other new watchlist <3;)

  • ZoinsZoins Posts: 34,116 ✭✭✭✭✭

    This is really a stand out error. A Box of 20 coin in my opinion :)

    a very cool looking error coin

    what year / mint was this?

    Hard to tell from the detail that is there, but I would guess it dates from 1965-70. There are a slew of spectacular errors known across all of the clad denominations from this era as the Mint ramped up production.

    The incuse seems to me to be more evident on the "In God We Trust".
