atticus-silver Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Hi all, I was hoping I could get some help from the experts.I have acquired a 1696 William III Octavo edge crown, it looks as if there is a possible strike error at the VL of GVLIELMVS....I couldnt find anything specific to this as a known error but I have very limited experience with coins.Any info would be greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance for any help.Best Regards, Jon Quote
Rob Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Die flaw. A small piece of metal has broken away from the die leaving a depression which formed a raised lump on the coin. Quote

Peckris Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 I'd rate it GF/AF i.e. an overall grade of Fine. Quote
