Description
Broadstruck 1999-D Dime on a Cent Planchet
MS65 Brown
1999-D Roosevelt Dime--Broad Struck on a Cent Planchet--MS65
Brown NGC. 2.5 gm. Under most circumstances, wrong-metal errors
involving planchets of larger diameter than the design allows are
impossible; the flan simply would not fit due to the presence of
the collar. In a broadstrike, however, coins can be struck
out-of-collar, which would bypass that restriction and permit the
striking of an unusual error. Such was the case with the origin of
this fascinating piece.Blue-green, violet, and gold-orange elements grace each side of this Gem. Significant unstruck margins surround the central elements. The devices are sharp, as one might expect from the excess metal, and the eye appeal is strong. An exciting and interesting error that seems impossible at first glance.
