Title: 1977 Proof set
Post by: trout on August 07, 2014, 10:40:09 AM
I just picked this Proof set up on eBay.
Is it just the images or does this 5 cent coin look struck off centre ?
It wasn't listed as an error; I just noticed that the 5 cent looked Odd.

The set was tilted and you're seeing some sort of reflection in the fields on the left.

No worries , I need the 50 cent coin for my collection as it looks better than the one I have anyway :)
