    Alaska extra claw error

    Hi,

    Can you direct me to information on the extra claw error. I've seen several which look like die breaks. But the one in the attached photo seems to be the result of an intentional extra claw. Especially, where the second claw crosses the first claw.

    Thanks

    Looks like a die gouge or a die dent.

      Yep, your right. I was able to find info on the web which said the same thing. It also warned me that some of these show up on e-bay in the $20 - 30 dollar range, and to save my money.

      Thanks again
