I collect primarily Lincoln Cents, but I search other denominations as well. Known varieties are always looked for, but I have a keen interest in Die Breaks, Cuds, and Laminations.
I voted RPMs, It's human error at that point. Also... transition errors are good as well . On the side of collecting, I look for all the stuff for fun & get rid of everything. I might keep one that catches my eye though
Quote: Would that be considered a broadstrike or something else? And do they occur on the larger reeded coins, or is the detached reeding a phenomenon only of Dimes?
Here's an ANACS certified dime with split but still attached reading. It's both double struck and broad struck.
While I haven't seen a larger denomination with the same error, I have seen several that were struck through detached reeding. I would think that it's possible, but maybe the dime's size has something to do with broken attached reeding that's not possible on other sized coins.
