Small Dollar Errors Or Varieties

[TJ1952]

Been searching through the small dollar coins whenever I can find them. I did find a well circulated 2000-P Sacagawea Dollar wounded or speared eagle several months ago.

Been looking on-line at these small dollars and found a few references mentioning a Presidential dollar with an unusual long ray on the reverse.

Is anyone familiar with these or have hear of them?

Wow!! Interesting! Thanks for that Double! That's a start for sure. He's calling it an "Unidentified Fascinating Oddity?"

I guess it's better then nothing. Thanks for that!

I just found a little more info on it.

That's a very interesting die anomaly.

I wonder if it could have been produced in much the same way "Trails" were determined (by Will) to be produced by polishing in a certain direction?

I wish I knew.

Very well could be a polishing trail. In fact, I don't know what else it could be. That would explain it perfectly. A close look at one might help.

Edit: in the doubledie.com post, you can clearly see a distortion and that the ray does not smoothly and consistently extend. It's an alteration of a regular die, most likely by improper polishing.

Update: I just found this.

My advice is to sell it immediately before everyone realizes it is just a trail die.

What is a tail die?

supposed to say trail die. Stupid autocorrect.

So a TPG would slab it if it was a trail die without identifying as such?

No one has proven it to be a trails die either.
