Lot 32309 > Elizabeth II silver Mint Error - Partial Collar "Maple Leaf" 5 Dollars 2013 MS61 NGC, KM1525. An intriguing mint error struck partially out of its collar. Roughly 45% of the obverse is bordered by an abnormally tall finned rim, which at its peak extends a little over 3mm from the surface of the coin, roughly doubling the coin's thickness. It is a wonder that this piece was able to exit the mint, as the production standards for Maple Leaf coinage are generally quite strict. Although the grade is somewhat immaterial considering the unique status of this piece, we note that it exhibits very little in the way of distracting marks and would not be out of place with a grade even two or so points higher.
