The "dublin head" penny looks plastic to me.

I'm more impressed with the dublin fingerprints all over the coin.
What about that $275,000 error. It's an interesting piece (not at $275K, of course), but what kind of error is that?

 the Dublin coin is obviously fake, impossible and too thick at the rim--machined?  The $275K error looks like a real strike on a bronze planchet fragment? Maybe Mike Diamond has an idea.

That's what I think of when I hear "error coin," none of these tiny little scratches, or extra little bumps in a design. To me, those things are just natural imperfections in the minting process, not "errors." A penny being struck off center or a coin with the reverse of a different denomination, that's a true "error."

I'm thinking the 275K coin was struck off center on a planchet with a straight clip. I saw a similar coin on ebay except this one looks like it was struck off center on a planchet with a curved clip: http://cgi.ebay.com/1979d-HUGE-Off-...em35ad00d530The 275K coin is certainly a cool looking error, but for 275K I think I can live without it!

Must be an irish lincoln if it came from Dublin. Knock off 5 zeros on the other coin and it might sell.
