brukat2005 New Member Canada 22 Posts	Posted 11/12/2014 6:15 pm Just wondering if this is a true mint error? http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Canada-SPECT...em4873369c75 Report this Post to the Staff

Altaira Pillar of the Community Canada 2517 Posts	Posted 11/12/2014 6:25 pm I would be suspicious. The design stays very sharp all the way to the ends of the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
brukat2005 New Member Canada 22 Posts	Posted 11/12/2014 6:36 pm I was thinking that. If the nickel was struck on a dime planchet, would you still get a rim and edging of a normal dime? Report this Post to the Staff
Alexer Pillar of the Community Canada 2632 Posts	Posted 11/12/2014 7:05 pm It looks real but I do have a few questions I would ask before purchasing it. Report this Post to the Staff
brukat2005 New Member Canada 22 Posts	Posted 11/12/2014 7:21 pm Seems this seller has a golden touch in finding error coins. Wish I knew where his bank is located. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Canada-1979-...em20ef7e47dc Report this Post to the Staff
Altaira Pillar of the Community Canada 2517 Posts	Posted 11/12/2014 8:28 pm The reeded edge of the dime comes from the collar. A nickel has a smooth collar so there will be no reeded edge. The penny looks good to me. Report this Post to the Staff
Smallcentguy Pillar of the Community Canada 1984 Posts	Posted 11/12/2014 9:02 pm I bet he bought these errors at the last Torex auction. http://cnc.forwardsim.com/auction/2...on/session/3 Lot 630 Edited by Smallcentguy 11/12/2014 9:04 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Vancouver IslandCoinKid Forum Kid Canada 1074 Posts	Posted 11/26/2014 9:52 pm the rim doesn't look right to me, and the coin would be off center would it not? it wouldn't be perfectly circle equal all around. Report this Post to the Staff
rottnrog Valued Member United States 152 Posts	Posted 11/26/2014 10:30 pm I believe it is real. You can see the raised area where the rim should be on the dime. Report this Post to the Staff
SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10456 Posts	Posted 11/27/2014 01:08 am It is very real, and tougher year to find, if you collect date runs of 5c struck on 10c planchets. Quote: I bet he bought these errors at the last Torex auction. Undoubtedly!! If I had not blown my budget at the Moore Legacy auction last June, this bidder would have had some competition at Torex!!
