MikeCoin Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 I strongly suspect it is but thought I'd get the second opinion from y'all.Just found this coin beside me when I was sat in my armchair. There's a stroke of luck for you.Can I finally afford that Jag I've always wanted? =p Quote
MikeCoin Posted September 3, 2009 Author Posted September 3, 2009 Interestingly none of the lettering looks double-struck but the spots around the edge do. Quote
scott Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 probably not... i have 1 of those also and one from 2001 Quote
MikeCoin Posted September 3, 2009 Author Posted September 3, 2009 But it is a double strike, yea? Quote

Flash Posted September 27, 2009 Posted September 27, 2009 Doesn't look double struck to me. If double struck both strikes would give a bust the same size therefore it would only be visible to one side. This is visible all the way round so presumably just a weak striking? Quote
