Rarity:RRRR


This token blank was  stuck to the hammer die (the die which moves the most and is not below the collar) that has received numberless strikes and is spreading enough to creep up the sides of the hammer die.

  2. Hi Dickson,
    Just wondering whether errors of such extremities ever escaped the scrutiny of the mint's QC dept before?
    If it did, then it is more fantastic than the Fantastic Four, haha.
    Nice article, Dickson :)

  5. Hi whycollect,
    These tokens were minted in BNM Money Museum, it was opened to public,no need to walk through the metal detector machine.
