Do you like the tooltips for the two pics? Just hover the mouse over each pic.

Nothing is a joke on ebay.An abundance of ignorance but no jokes.

I've got better strikes of that era in an album that didn't cost enough to have to grovel on all fours for forgiveness from my wife. At least he has enough balls to not try to insinuate it's slabbed.

Well, David Lange wrote that the vast majority of 26-D cents were struck from dies displaying advanced wear. Even so, I don't think it would explain this coin.

very nice UNE cent piece

Maybe he meant quickly struck? Those dies come together quickly.

Looks to me like that could be a case of a tapered planchet...one that's thick enough on one side, not thick enough on the other. That would be an extreme case of soft strike, and it's definately not die wear.

Might it alternatively be an example of an improperly aligned die pair?
