This error is caused when the planchet (coin blank) is sitting out of alignment with the collar when the die applies pressure to strike the coin. Resulting in a high lips to the coin, when this happens to a 50 Cent (Dodecagonal shaped coin) It creates raised burrs to the 12 points on the edge of the coin.
An interesting error which is more dramatic once in the hand.
