SlyCynic Valued Member United States 54 Posts	Posted 03/08/2016 4:18 pm Got this from the Mint today... maybe they intentionally flawed the coin to represent the flawed presidency? Note the bloodless head wound and what appears to be raised lines on the right. Tough to get a good angle on it as I really don't want to take it out of the holder. Even the dollar sign on the back is all screwy. This coin's just a mess of peaks and valleys. I guess I expected something better coming directly from the Mint.

oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5268 Posts	Posted 03/08/2016 8:51 pm I have found that most of the dollar coins in this series have got quite a few bag marks. It seems that is all we can expect. Report this Post to the Staff

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 03/09/2016 12:40 pm The problem is that the golden dollars receive twice as much handling as other coins due to the edge lettering process. Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 190550 Posts	Posted 03/09/2016 2:27 pm Ah, that makes sense. I am still glad I decided to collect proof-only for these. I bought my first ever Presidential uncirculated set last year so I could have all of the coins which matched my C&C sets.
