    If there's nothing cool going on on the other side it's a $12 coin on eBay.

    Kind of bizarre metal flow at the base of the "E" in "ONE". The whole vertical line is there but the entire bottom horizontal line didn't strike at all.

    All comments reflect the opinion of the author, even when irrefutably accurate.

    Honestly, I think the most unusual thing about that coin is that it was only struck once. Most of the broadstruck coins I have seen from the horizontal Schuler presses (mainly dollars and quarters) have been struck multiple times.

    I would also like to point out that if the coin were dated 1999 instead of 2019, it would not qualify as a "major mint error" by most people's definition of the term. As the Mint's manufacturing techniques have evolved over time, so should our understanding of what can go wrong and how often. Many errors that were relatively common in the 1970s or 80s have been rendered nearly obsolete on modern equipment.

    I like the lower bands - there is not any reeding anywhere is there?

    No reeding, single struck large broadstruck

    One known example :)

    You are correct, Skip.

    It is indeed one of a kind.
