puman Valued Member United States 67 Posts	Posted 06/01/2008 5:25 pm I just opened my first roll of JQ Adams dollar coins and I'm finding some interesting results on the edge lettering. They are from the Denver mint. There is no way I can get a pic of this but hopefully I can describe it. The first coin I observed has a "R" (backwards) in between the U and M of UNUM. The second has an "E" (again backwards)coming off the D in GOD. I'm going to see what else I can find and will post later. The only other abnormal edge I found in this roll was a "T" inside a U in UNUM. Edited by puman 06/01/2008 6:12 pm Report this Post to the Staff

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 06/02/2008 11:09 am If you see backwards lettering on the rim, that is from incidental contact with another edge lettered coin and has nothing to do with the striking or edge lettering process. scroll to the bottom of the page for pics http://home.earthlink.net/~smalldol.../page33.html Edited by biokemist6 06/02/2008 11:12 am Report this Post to the Staff
puman Valued Member United States 67 Posts	Posted 06/02/2008 11:45 am Nice link Biokemist. The coins I have detected are what they are describing as "dropped letters". The roll of 25 contained 11 with the edge lettering upside down. Report this Post to the Staff
