MALAYSIA THIRD SERIES COINS: DIE CHIP VARIETIES.
Malaysia 3rd Series 2012 50 Coins With Die Chip Varieties.
Yesterday, when I did my Sunday marketing at a wholesale store, I managed to change RM90 worth of Malaysia 3rd Series (M3S) 50 cents Nickel Brass Clad Copper coins from a coin vending machine.They are in UNC condition.
As usual, without fail I flipped through all 180 pieces of these 50 cents M3S coins. I found 28 pieces with Die Chip Varieties.That was 15.55 in percentage.
Out of 180 pieces in UNC condition, almost 50% were covered with many nicks or bag marks, 45 % of them were ended up with moderate bag marks and the balance of 5% only can be considered as choice uncirculated coins.

Hi Dickson,
ReplyDeleteWow, almost 16%!
Is it an indication of poor QC in the mint?
Just hope we are not heading back to the ancient days where finding a well made coin is considered rare.
Thanks a lot, Dickson :)

ReplyDeleteHi Dickson,
ReplyDeleteOK, thanks for the useful tip.
Got to look out for these BU specimens.
Probably their stainless steel younger brothers are tougher.
Thanks a lot, Dickson :D
Hi Whycollect,
ReplyDeleteLooked at the M3S 50 cents coins,they were minted in a very sharp and good condition.
The nicks and bag marks may caused by coin counting machine and coin vending machine.I realized that the coins were discharged from the coin counting machine or coin vendoring machine at a high speed like bullets,thus caused the coins knocked on each an other.
Finding a BU coin can be a challenge!

until now I have yet to get a piece of the new 10 cent and 50 cent coin. only manage to get 5 cent(lightly scratched) and 20 cent.
ReplyDeleteHi Mr Dickson,
ReplyDeleteTerlepas pandang post syiling2 error baru ni,nampaknya ada unsur2 menurun dalam kualiti syiling2 Malaysia baru ini.Rasanya pengumpul2 syiling error pun tidak gembira dengan situasi seperti ini kerana premium untuk error pun tentu kecil atau hampir tiada.
Kita tunggu dan lihat penemuan dari pengumpul lain pula,mungkin ada kategori lain pula akan dipamirkan.
Terima kasih banyak2 Mr Dickson...
depankanta,
ReplyDeletePada pendapat saya,syiling2 Malaysia 3rd Series (M3S) ini mungkin ditempa dengan bagus,tetapi oleh kerana setelah di "Kisar" dan di "Goreng" oleh coin vending machine,maka permukaan diatas kebanyakan2 syiling2 M3S sudah pun dicalar!
Pendapat saya, Jika syiling ini tidak lasak berbanding siri 1 & 2, pasti ianya lebih mengelirukan jika syiling syiling palsu memasuki pasaran. Kalau segi lebih selamat pun Syiling RM1 pun tidak jauh bezanya. Dengan saiz syiling 50sen siri 3 yang lebih kecil, pasti kos memproses wang palsu lebih murah dari dari siri ke-2. Entahlah.... sekadar pendapat dari saya :)
ReplyDeleteHi iaryylr,
ReplyDeleteDengan teknologi yang canggih-canggih sekarang, apa-apa pun mungkin terjadi pada M3S! Tunggu dan lihat sajalah.
I have so far seen two new 20cent (from the same place)..and they both have alignment errors between the back and front.
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteGood specimens to be shared ! Please take a sharp photo forward to me to post on my Blog!
