coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/01/2012 1:39 pm The is a BIE error. They were collectable at one time. But after discovering they were a die chip and change with continued use of the die, they stopped collecting them. Most are from the 1950's as they over used the dies at that time. They still are out there and many save them anyway. Report this Post to the Staff
