Description
1896 Indian Cent, AU53
Three Rotated Strikes In Collar
Final Strike Off Center 60%
1896 1C Indian Cent -- Quadruple Struck, Final Strike Off Center
-- AU53 PCGS. The PCGS holder says "triple struck," but we
count four. The first strike was normal, and the piece rotated a
few degrees counterclockwise in the collar, and was struck again,
then yet again. The coin was then struck a fourth time,
approximately 60% off center toward 10 o'clock and rotated a bit
clockwise relative to the first, second, and third strikes. Both
sides show evidence of all strikes. A search of our archives fails
to show a multiply struck Indian cent with such an impressive and
spectacular Mint error. Remarkably, this coin shows signs of
circulation before being put aside as something unusual (or perhaps
it was a pocket piece).
