paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 10/03/2016 10:51 pm Anyone want to take a shot at this one based on bad photos? Appears to be struck slightly "off" somehow but might also be PMD. Errors are NOT a field of numismatics in which I am overly knowledgeable, so I'd like some opinions from CCF on this coin. Reverse does show a slight rotation. If this is a legitimate mint error, what would the proper terminology be?

Additionally, neither of them would increase value as they stand on this example. Report this Post to the Staff

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 10/04/2016 8:01 pm Thanks to you two for the excellent information. I'd like to add more knowledge about errors to my numismatic studies at some point, and this is certainly helpful. Value's not really an issue, it's not exactly a scarce, desirable, or high grade coin to begin with, just another variety for an envelope. :) Member ANA - EAC - TNA - SSDC - CCT #890 "Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossible before they were done." -- Louis D.
