Blundered Inscription - A mistake made with the writing on a coin. Sometimes due to the illiteracy of the person making the dies (often the tribes that copied the Roman and Greek ancient coins) or more recently an error.
The die size is smaller than on regular mid-10th century solidi and the engraving is of markedly inferior style with a blundered inscription on reverse.
