Found an odd R2 in my change

[xina 10]

I would like to share some pics of an 2010 R2 that I got with my change at a toll gate a couple of days ago.

 

Two rising bits looks like some small shavings that might have been struck onto the coin. This coin is defiantly going into my odd finds box.

Hi Xina

 

It seems as if the coin had got stuck during the minting process and has been double struck, notice how the number looks "double". It is called an Error coin. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply. I figured it to be an error coin but I know to little about SA coins anf error coins to be 100% sure. Is it possible to have it graded and slabbed as an error coin, not for value or resale but just to have it authenticate?
