There are a few photos on my CCF coin gallery of 2006 $1 errors. This one features. I think there is also a photo of the 'fat' R in Dollar with the 'fat' paw. There is alos one I have called 'tie me kangaroo down sport'. It is a die crack from the paw to the rim. I also found many with a die crack from both the paw and the foot. |
