vanbroj Valued Member United States 450 Posts	Posted 01/09/2012 9:36 pm Just picked up a 1918 S Buff Graded AU by ICG I noticed the bootom loop in the eight was doubled and so is the last one in the date. Has anyone heard of this error , or is it just a random error ? Did not see it in the RedBook. Thanks, John Report this Post to the Staff

weerdsteev Pillar of the Community United States 1291 Posts	Posted 01/10/2012 11:15 am I agree that a photo would be extremely helpful. Also, you said "I noticed the bottom loop in the eight was doubled and so is the last one in the date." ? Isn't that the same thing? Also....from David Lange's book... POPULAR VARIETIES: One or more two-feathers varieties exist, though these are typically placed under a single number (FS-1918-401). One die shows an interesting crack through the date that progressed to become a Retained Cud. Edited by weerdsteev 01/10/2012 11:18 am Report this Post to the Staff
vanbroj Valued Member United States 450 Posts	Posted 01/10/2012 9:27 pm Sorry ladies and gentlemen, I do not have a camera that will allow that close up of a picture. I had to use my loop to see this. The bottom half of the 8 in 1918 is doubled as well as the number ONE right next to it. I have heard that minor errors like this are common and add no premium to the coins value , just want other opinions.. OPPS ! Yes IGC Report this Post to the Staff

That is a form of dyslexia encounter by those approaching their golden years. Independent Coin Graders is indeed ICG. If there were a cross-eyed emoticon I would use it here.
