That doesn't sound right to give errors to different size coins just because more people collect them.. lol

What he's referring to is the fact the entire "D" was lost. That's what makes it an error.

I could be wrong but when I learned about Grease Filled Die errors I was told that the larger the coin the more significant it is in terms of being an error or not as small coins could pass mint inspection easily but such things would be much more magnified and caught on larger coins.

(disclaimer- I was not told this by expert ccf members so I could be wrong lol)
