Title: Different baseline
Post by: b_j_w_79 on January 21, 2013, 04:22:23 PM
Hi all,

I've been searching through a heap of 20c coins (without much success to be honest, definitely no wavy 2's). I came across this 1966 20c with a different baseline on the 2. What would cause this? Any thoughts?

Pretty sure that Double Struck Look is called machine doubling.
Interesting example if you like that sort of stuff.:idea:

Also had my 'puter upgraded a bit, but not anything I'd notice.

Yeah, I reckon it'll be a close final between 'The Fed' and "The Joker". :blum3:

As far as the women's goes, the D9 will most likely prevail. :winkextra:
