What are the market indicative of ?  Do we know what they stand for ?

Where did you get the coin -- the seller had no information or guesses ?

The coin finds itself in South Africa at present. Can only assume it has travelled here by the hand of a dealer or collector, they are rare in our market which is dominated by Kruger Pond and Kruger Rand gold coins.

The mark itself is intriguing and I'm unable to find any reference to its originater, owner, group etc.

It appears to be struck with excessive force or by an inexperienced hand unfamiliar with gold shore hardness.

That's all the details we have...

Hi there!  

Greetings and salutations.

I cannot resist the temptation to weigh in.  You state you have a Double Eagle with "this marking where it should not be."  Personally, I do not see the need for such marking at all, but if you feel it is "where it should not be," perhaps you can tell us where it ought to be.  We take all customer complaints seriously.  🤣

(I am sure someone will stop by shortly to give you a valid explanation.)

🤣 Love your sense of humour!

Not complaining sir, perplexed

Dear Members, my first posting here:

Have this 1907 $20 Liberty Head gold coin with this marking where it should not be.

Please can you assist in identifying the marking?

Regards
