Here's a couple of die clashes,bearded queen.















I like the bearded queen so i bought a bulk lot ( 30 odd ) for $1 each,the 2nd coin does have a beard but only lightly clashed.

All lovely coins- have been noodling all weekend, 2nd time through these pennies, this time with a fine toothed comb as opposed to last time as an excited beginner.! All 1950's and so far another 45 die cracks/ errors /varieties.!:wavemulticolor:

  do you reckon  this was done by hand or is an error .
strange , it never touched his back legs , and how much rubbing would it take to wear that much ? if it was done by hand ..
 anyway , it will surely end back in the bucket ..
