194X Lincoln Cent
Counterbrockage & Clashed Cap Brockage
NGC MS 63 BN
Extremely Rare
SOLD

Although the NGC insert describes this mint error as Obverse Struck Thru Capped Die, that is only part of the description for this rare mint error. This is a Counterbrockage and Clashed Cap Brockage.

This planchet was struck by an obverse die cap. The reverse of the die cap was a brockage of the obverse design. This created a counterbrockage on the obverse of this mint error. It also has an incuse brockage from a clashed die cap. The die cap contacted the reverse die and created a brockage in the center of the coin. Therefore, it has both a counterbrockage and an incuse brockage on the obverse!

An extremely rare mint error on a Wheat Ear Lincoln Cent and in very choice mint state.
