Tom9145 Posted Wednesday at 09:27 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 09:27 PM I'm curious if this could have been double stamped when minted, and if there's any value to it. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenstang Posted Wednesday at 09:40 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 09:40 PM Not double struck, It is a damaged coin, probably intentional. A coin struck in collar cannot be elongated, it had to happen after the coin was ejected. The Neophyte Numismatist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom9145 Posted Wednesday at 09:47 PM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 09:47 PM Thanks, I guess it's worth $.01, or maybe less. It won't fit in a roll of pennies... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powermad5000 Posted Thursday at 03:55 AM Share Posted Thursday at 03:55 AM Coins are struck, not stamped (although RWB will say this statement is wrong). I see incuse reverse partial lettering which says right there this did not happen at the Mint. Also, off center strikes or partial brockages still have the round shape of a coin. This elongated shape is not commensurate with how coins are struck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
