    Squeezed with a cent reverse. PSD
    Richard S. Cooper Some have asked about my images I use, and I'm glad to say I've completed a DVD of these. Ask if you are interested. Newer members like these.

        Not a mint error. The coin was intentionally squeezed together with a cent making the impression you see. As Coop said, it is PSD, which means post-strike damage. It was damaged after it was created.

          For the most part you can assume that in theory a smaller coin or blank can be struck/overstruck as a bigger coin but not vice versa.

          A dime or dime blank can be struck/overstruck as anything.
          A cent or cent blank can be struck/overstruck as anything other than a dime.
          A nickel or nickel blank can be struck/overstruck as anything other than a cent or dime.
          A quarter or quarter blank can be struck/overstruck as a half or dollar but nothing else.

          In every case the images will not be mirrored or incuse.

          Using those rules will weed out a lot of damaged coins.
          It would have ruled this one out because a nickel or nickel blank can be struck/overstruck as anything other than a cent or dime.

            Agreed, pressed against another coin under pressure.
