Astounding 1976 Type Two Bicentennial Dollar
Obverse Indented by Smaller Planchet, MS66

1976 Type Two Eisenhower Dollar--Obverse Indented by Smaller Planchet--MS66 NGC. The allure of this piece is due to the dramatic nature of the error as well as the wonderful condition of the host coin. NGC states on the label that this 1976 Type Two Eisenhower dollar was indented by a "smaller planchet." Specifically, it appears that a blank nickel planchet (not included) entered the coining chamber at approximately the same time as the dollar flan. The result is a dramatic indent error that obliterates approximately 20% of the obverse between 1 o'clock and 3 o'clock. A rare error that is sure to witness active bidding.
