has been harshly scratched in the past but still a very groovy error coin!
also has a tiny edge clip which is separate to the die errors

Robbie I think there is more going on with that coin.
I'm thinking it's a later stage die strike.

1. U of Australia starting to fill
2. Die chip at base of last leg of last A of Australia
3. Possible die chip or cud inside base of E in Penny

Yellow Arrows
Cud form in base of E of One
Something going on with 1st N of Penny
Die chip or cud on leg of P of Penny

too cool
thanks Dr. Fordie

no Prof. Robster - not a new camera but I am trying to educate myself more on how to use the thing - bought it in feb when the first grandie came into the world

I think the scratches are proof like die polishing Goldie
coin must be worth a fortune!! ha ha

Ooooh.. really?
I must rush off and place an order with the Trout Mint™ for some of their FdT (Fleur de Trout) coins with extra polishing then.
