this coin shows machine damage on the grading report from  PCGS , would that also mean it is an error coin ???
please don't ask me where I got it from , because I have no idea where or how I got hold of it , but I believe it is still a lovely old coin with great history of why it was minted  ..


also at 1954 on the report from PCGS it has a M  after the date , does that M  mean Melbourne by any chance  ????
take care because we care ..

That's an excellent find Kel. Looks like a 'mint your own'.
Thinking is dangerous, it makes you think. That\'s why many people avoid it.

No I don't think so Kel, maybe it got scratched across something and they think it was done at the mint but not real sure sorry and yes the M stands for melbourne. A lovely looking coin so a real shame it didn't grade.

thanks mate , I don't know how you can do that but that is brilliant ,

still being UNC , it may be more valuable out of the slab .

I took the picture off PCGS but only because you showed the slab number.

Yes you'd probably be better off cracking it open and just put it into your collection because it's not worth much in a detailed slab and that's a shame as it's a nice looking coin except for the few little scrape lines.

Well done Kel. I have found two big spews but haven't seen the small spew. Must keep looking.

I've got a few of the big ones as well. They seem to be very common for 2015. I haven't seen the small one yet, so that's a very good find!

Look like I might have to get into the noodling game again.

Haven't noodled anything since Sep 2015 except the coins that one gets in change every now and then.
