JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 14635 Posts	Posted 11/27/2021 10:55 am What is the error on the 1/000? It looks like corrosion has eaten away the 1. Nice 1951 cent. Report this Post to the Staff
johnjkedel Pillar of the Community United States 545 Posts	Posted 11/27/2021 11:26 am The error is ... is should be 1/100.. and yes it has a lot of corrosion. Edited by johnjkedel 11/27/2021 11:27 am Report this Post to the Staff

kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 2125 Posts	Posted 11/27/2021 12:36 pm I don't pretend to know anything about all the die pairs for 1801, but the 1/000 seems to be very common judging by Heritage archives, i.e. it's not an error, it's a variety. Obviously 1/000 isn't a real denomination (mathematically it's infinity) so why they made the die(s) with that, I don't know. Report this Post to the Staff
sh521932 New Member United States 35 Posts	Posted 11/27/2021 1:55 pm Common or not, it's still an error in the die that was left uncorrected by the mint at the time. It's one of the error varieties for 1801; the others include a 1/100 over 1/000, and the 3 error coin: which includes the 1/000, one stem, and IINITED errors. The U was originally engraved upside down and when corrected it left the II pattern instead of the U. If anyone has an example of this variety to share, that would be awesome!

jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 1514 Posts	Posted 11/27/2021 2:29 pm I love the 1/000 cent. Even though it is corroded, you can still see the variety. I've been wanting one of these, but it is far on the priority list:) The 1851/81 looks original and has great eye appeal. Though these were mistakes by a mint employee, these are varieties not errors. Report this Post to the Staff
Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 4009 Posts	Posted 11/27/2021 7:46 pm Cool varieties for sure. No comment on the bust but I would call the 51/81 VF25 Details, due to reverse scratches (possibly graffiti, almost looks intentional). My Buffalo Complete Circ.

mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 1500 Posts	Posted 11/27/2021 8:41 pm On the 1801, it looks like tbe planchet was made overseas in England, then shipped over to our country for minting. So imagine barrel upon barrel of copper planchets getting salted upon and corroding due to that and they end up looking like yours. So it makes me wonder if the farther inside those planchets are, the less corrosion they might receive. Report this Post to the Staff
