Hi, if anyone can tell me more about this error of the rim being mis-aligned on the observe that would be great. has anyone seen other misalignments like this and what would be a rough value estimate? Cheers
I had noticed on a number of the 2001's before, especially the WA one.
What is the reverse on yours?
Yeah it is a WA coin. Have you seen it on other years? Would you know the value?
Sorry, not much idea on the value. (Depends really on how many were interested in it).
It looks a nice coin though.
What are you looking at? I just get a blank image and clicking on it takes me to Old Coin Chest site -"access denied".
Hopefully this works for you Jeff.

Note the corners of the planchet vs the corners of the strike. Off a tad ..... or about as much as you could with a 12 sided piece.
Yes thanks, I am with it. Will have to have a look through mine.
ok fair enough, thanks Unicorn, yeah sorry jeff I unpublished the link and just uploaded an attachment and yeah sorry it a small picture aswell
so is this rotated?
not by much if it is?
not entirely sure what this means ' strike alignment on observe off'
Yes its rotated slightly, more obvious looking at the bottom of the rim, Sounds like back to the pond!!
OCC, to me that's way too nice a coin to throw back!

I have to agree, it's in very good nick!
Ok, I will hold onto it for now, I will try to do some more research into error coins and values to try and suss out its value, I found a few other 5 cent coins I will post up aswell, Thanks for advise
