Hello all Just got this one off ebay$3.03 Free Shipping A real mess ... But I bought it as it "might" be a poor example of an ORANGE PEEL ERROR Opinions welcomed ------------------- Orange Peel Texture PART IV. Die Errors: Die Deterioration / Die Deformation: Die Deterioration: Orange Peel Texture Definition: As a die pounds away at thousands of planchets, the surface metal experiences microscopic plastic flow. Over time, the surface becomes rough. Radial flow lines, concentric flow lines, and an "orange peel" texture are names applied to various patterns of roughness. ERROR-REF.COM ------------

Jbuck... Quote: I like it. Good deal. From time to time I get to bid on IKEs that are special in my judgement. Like this (possible) ORANGE PEEL -- or a PEG LEG -- or an off center IKE Then I have the option to "COLLECT" it or resell it on ebay. All in all I really like to collect -- but then I have the option to sell when something better comes my way.

Interesting, Domain. I've never heard of this "orange peel" error/variety before.

How about an honestly circulated 1974-S (business) for your Saturday morning?

PMD -- But how? Full visual is more or less 50% perfect REEDs and 50% uniformly deeply whacked maybe 100-150 dents on reeds Bank Coin Counter? Coin counter on road Turnpike? -- have feeling Turn Pikes get heavy deliberate "STUFF" like rocks metal etc. Zero chance a catastrophic mint collar failure? Have one other similar IKE Ideas?

ERROR-REF.COM ------------------------- Hi all Wanted to share this one. Have had it for long time. To me, it fits the ORANGE PEEL def REVERSE is more or less normal --- BU-ish Thoughts welcome Not sure if I got it in a BAG or if it was with the few coins I got at a LCS for $1.10 (?)

Those are nice IKE Darth. How much do they cost (would you mind share with us)? I guess probably not cheap?

Thanks. I traded 2 common date graded Morgan dollars for the 1972 Type 1. The 1972-D and 1974 were $25 each. But after final value fees and shipping they ended up at $32 each. Well worth it to me for PQ Ikes.
