Australia 1953 Shilling Ramstrike Error
A typical high lip error known as a ramstrike. Nice grade unc.

Often called a pancake coin because this coin was struck completely without the collar die. Because it wasn’t held by the collar it has a larger than standard diameter and is without edge milling.
Coin with a double error -a clipped planchet that incorrectly seated in the collar die producing a tilted partial collar.
Commonly known as a clamshell because of its appearance this coin has split because of an inclusion in the metal but has stayed attached around 30% of the edge.
My favourite error coin a partial collar with an indent that happened when this coin was struck against another struck coin. This leaves the brockage impression of the reverse of the other coin it struck in the indent site. A stunning high grade.
Minimal edge milling present, this coin was barely in the collar when it was struck.
A high grade 5 cent error coin 10% off centre losing part of the date.
Lots of metal flow and fishtailing of the legends.
A lovely little error from the Canberra Mint.
