RoadKill

Looks like it's been steamrollered. :dodgy:

I was thinking the same thing.
That would explain why it is larger.

mmm so why can I still see some writing and flat parts on some of the field as I would have thought it should have been flat all over, very strange this one but what ever did it did it with great pressure :good:
I was thinking it might have been a railway line coin but who knows

A "railroad" coin, placed on a railway line so a loco can run over it.
I am sure we ALL did this as kids :diablo:

too slow old man, I beat ya to the punch :aggressive: quick as lightning :laugh2:
you can still see some of the writing so it must be a mint error :laugh2:

I know nothing about coins, but my great-uncle Albert was in charge of the mint one lunchtime sixty years ago, and I found it in an old tobacco tin hidden under his mattress, along with his Playboy collection. Obviously a RARE and VALUABLE MINT ERROR, worth at least sixteen squillion bucks! :dodgy:

A poor week for road kill; at least for me.
This is the best I could come up with. That's one Centenary of Federation coin I will not keep!

Pretty poor effort, isn't it? Hardly "roadkill", more "shopsoiled" I'd say.

For just a moment there, I thought someone had butchered a coloured millennium.

[ausjack]

most of the coins I get to noodle look like crap and just so lucky to find anything nice..so many have all this black or green goop all over them :cray:
