What happened to this coin? What is this classified as? I am under the impression it is greese or oil on the die. This one is from my fathers collection and was cataloged in 55. The reverse is normal.

It appears the coin was struck with an over used and copiously cracked die. It's dramatic and would be of interest to collectors.

You know I do not want to mention this subject but. If my father was alive today he would be very happy that the error coins he had set aside and spent so much time viewing are becoming noticed as collectors. I remember other collectors would laugh at him for the errors he would show them. Now who has the last laugh?

Good to hear! Errors have gained the popularity they deserve, only in very recent years. People once thought they were worthless, now, their hot collector's items.

Your father is in Peace, and he's laughing as we speak!
