Name that error

This is from a 1999 mint set still in the cello. Can any one tell me what caused this? Thanks

  • DragonAzz, I don't think your coin would be considered as an error because the indentations on the coin were made after it was stamped.

    It's a Mint Error for sure image
    Unfortunatly packaging errors do not have much prem. image
    It was caused by not being centered in it's section of the cello and the crimper left indentations on it when the cello was sealed.
    Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.
  • Thank you for the info as well as the "welcomes."

    I agree with Dog97 on this one. It doesn't look like a strike error but as he said a packaging error.

    Welcome to the boards! It's a great place to ask and answer questions

    This type of thing is caused by the machine that "crimps" the cellophane the coins are in striking the coins themselves.
