2007 D Washington Dollar With Dropped Reversed Letter Double

Interesting find Garret.

I would like to let you know that your use of flashing lights on the ebay auction are very very monotonous, and it caused me to stop reading well short of the end of your explanation. It started wigging out my eyes having the flashing so close to the writing! That fact alone would have me never visit any of your other auctions, so I just wanted to pass along in case you want to consider a new format. It may be working great for you, so certainly take this as my opinion only. I just wonder if others have passed up future auctions from you because of this. Just a thought.....

I'm certainly not telling you how to list your coins. It was just something that I noticed when I attempted to read though the listing.

I honestly don't know if it's the combination of Black background with bold white lettering AND the lights or what. I would just suggest doing yourself a favor and looking at the item while not logged into ebay. Just read down through the entire explanation after pausing and looking at every photo like a buyer would. Maybe it's just me, or maybe you will see what I am saying if you look at the listing as if you were an interested error collector per say.

Regardless, welcome to the forum!!

Hello peachymargarita,
I respect your opinion but I have many pictures that show an obvious G. previously you said I had found the mint mark. I'm not quite that simple. There is definitely an uppercase G and in fact I see two G's overlapping. I've seen die gouges. In regard to the size of the G it does look consistent with the size of the incuse G of IN

I'm seeing a lot of these on auctions with an extra incused letter on the edge.

Let me throw this out for discussion:

What if the obverse or reverse of a prez dollar made contact with the edge of another dollar during bagging, shipping, handling, etc., etc. For example purpose only: lets say one of the designer's initial on the coin hit pretty hard on the edge of another coin. Couldn't the letter or letters of that designer's initial now impart itself (which would be incuse and backwards) into the edge of the other coin. Could this be what we are seeing on these?

Lets go another step further. We have seen some with what looks like an incuse and backwards "S" extra letter on the edge. Again, could we have the letter "S" of STATES made that heavy contact with the edge of the other dollar and that would be what we are seeing?

Again, I'm just throwing this out as food for thought and discussion.

Chime in ...

I'm not so sure it's a letter "G." It looks deformed along with another contact mark.

"If it is dent with other coin the mark should not be raised instead dent or sunken."

I said in my post "incuse" which means sunken in.

here's another pic if it helps.

Upon close inspection in several different light sources and with different magnifiers, the letter is raised. The G is the same shape and size as the G of IN GOD WE TRUST. But that G of the motto is of course incused. There are also two distinct G's reversed and one on top of the other.
