50 CENTS COIN WITH CONCENTRIC LINES
Malaysia Parliament Series 1988 50 Cents Coin With Concentric Lines.Die Variety.
Rarity:RRR
During my recent visit to Malacca Jonker Stamp and Money Fair,Mr.S T Ngoh,a very passionate coins collector, showed me a piece of Malaysia Parliament series 1988 50 Cents coin with concentric lines exhibited on the obverse of the coin.This is a rather rare feature that can be seen on a genuine coin.
I used to highlight that to authenticate a Malaysia counterfeit 50 cents coin,the feature of concentric lines is always one of the prominent sign showed on the field of both the obverse and reverse of a counterfeit coin.
I am still hunting for an answer for this rare piece of genuine Parliament 50 cents coin with concentric lines on the obverse.

"It seems that these concentric lines are actually lathe-machined lines when dies were lathed out from designated-sized steel rods. Dies or rather their imperfections are usually polished or perfected before the first hubbing/impression are carried out. However, some dies were probably not well polished or cautiously inspected before hubbing.
Upon hubbing, these incuse lathe lines forms part of the coin's design with obvious raised concentric lines."-Nu coins and Notes

Hi Dickson,
ReplyDeleteWow, learned something new again.
Before this, always got the idea that concentric circles means forgery.
Yes, it would be great if we can get the answer to this phenomena on the 50sen coin.
Thnaks a lot, Dickson :)
Hi Mr Dickson,
ReplyDeleteSyiling dengan concentric lines 50 sen siri Parlimen ini ada juga dalam simpanan depankanta.Cadang nak pamir untuk perkongsian tapi yg depankanta punya tidak cantik macam ini,concentric lines tidak begitu jelas.
Mungkin bila banyak syiling dijumpai dan dipamirkan kita akan dapat analisa sebab-sebabnya.Ciri2 begini juga dikesan terjadi pada syiling 20 sen 2007..
Terima kasih banyak2 Mr Dickson.
