Awesome! Mint errors look amazing in high grade. If you don't mind me asking, how much did you get it for?

As far as affordable mint errors go, the 1999-2001 Lincolns are the best. Extremely high grade examples of off-center and broad strikes can be had for a couple bucks. I don't know what the deal was at the mint those years, but a lot of errors came out and most are still in uncirculated condition.

Tropicalbats is right. I have seen more broadstruck Lincoln cents dated 1999 than any other date. Certainly a nice and affordable way to obtain such nice mint errors.

Those were the last years of the bags of coins. Up till 2000, you could by $50 mint bags of cents. An error coin coin could be found in these bags of coins. In 2001' they started the pallets of coins. They sent these to the designated bagging locations and the errors were to be returned to the mint. Failure could result in loss of this of this service. So a lot more errors slowed getting out. Just the coins that would fit into the rolls are now found since then. ))_AAAA.jpg?i 0.1837634358316309) Edited by coop
