Australian Indent Errors
Australia 2002 Outback $1 Indent Error
Interestingly termed, an "Indent" error coin occurs when 2 planchets are fed into the collar accidently at once. Consequently the dies will press the blank's together creating a partial blank on one side. This may fully or only partially obscure the design. An indent may occur with the same blank or a totally different shaped or sized blank. This will result in a depression in the lower coin the shape of the upper blank. The above pictured is of the rarer type where a blank of a different denomination was fed into the collar. It is an Australian 2002 Outback design one dollar where a 5c or possibly two dollar blank has been fed in simultaneously.
