You need to change your title to:
Show me your Doubled Die Errors.

This is a very nice Doubled Die - very hard to find on modern coins. Ed

“The coins were struck by taking a piece of silver wire, cutting it to the proper weight, then smashing it between a pair of dies by a strong-armed Russian,”

I could see how many errors could happen using this kind of minting. That is one nice coin tho. Ed
