    1973 San Francisco mint medal

    Here is a 1973 San Francisco mint bronze medal commerating the mint. It has several die clashes and die chips. Now some of the chips might be design flaws I'm not sure.

    Additional photos. If I'm understanding correctly this one was minted at the San Francisco because of the "S" mintmark COPIES HAVE NONE. "SJW" is Sheryl J. Winter which has a die crack thru it. The die clash is from the left leg and tail feathers and upper left wing. "T" in USOA is grease filled.

      It appears to be a clash near the date of 1937. You show one full side of the coin.
      It would be good to show the other so we can see if the clash matches the pattern of the other side of the coin.

      Nevermind, i think I found it. It appears to be a mint set token. It commemorates the original building location of the San Francisco mint. Time permitting, i might be able to do a crude overlay to show what part of the other side of the working die clashed.
