    I'm typically not into error coins but that's neat image.
    The longer I live the more convincing proofs I see of this truth, that God governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice is it possible for an empire to rise without His aid? Benjamin Franklin

    yeah - that is interesting - I've seen one on a quarter planchet but never on a dime - you'd think with the planchet being so thin that it wouldn't have struck up as well as it did - I wonder if someone jiggled the pressure on the press to see what happened? It even looks like it has FBL's!

    I rather like the idea of a Frankie struck on a dime planchet. It's a substantial reduction in the amount of ugly. image

    I'd take either one in a second if I had the available cash!

    Actually, I'm not sure which I like better...

    I like the first one because it's centered. I like the second one because it's so uncentered. Go figure.

    Like the first one better as it is so well centered....really, it is so nice, it looks like someone "made" it on purpose image
