HopelessMagic New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 06/29/2013 11:45 am My Mother-in-law came to visit and brought a TON of stuff for us to go through since she's cleaning out her house. Besides her entire Barbra Streisand collection she brought what was left of her coin collection. The good stuff was stolen in a break-in years ago but she still had 8 rolls of wheat pennies, 2 mostly filled penny books, 2 mercs, a silver dollar and 3 Buffalo nickels. I did find these two error coins while I was searching the loot. I've never really looked for error coins or came across blatant errors before so not sure what I'm looking at here. That's an uncirculated 2008 dime and a 1987 penny Report this Post to the Staff

HopelessMagic New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 06/29/2013 11:13 pm Thanks for the info! I'll be sure to put them aside. Those are my first and only error coins so I feel kind of giddy inside. Report this Post to the Staff
