Hi all,

I'm not the best at identifying errors, let alone what type of error, so I'm going to ask for your opinions on a few coins. Here is the first a 2000 Royal 50c. What would cause this?

Thanks in advance!

It is a bit hard to tell, but I think that someone has cut it with a snap off knife.

I tend to agree with you. I managed to get a better angle the metal seems raised on both sides which indicates something like a knife.

Definitely, yeah. :(
