MontCollector Pillar of the Community United States 2403 Posts	Posted 06/26/2017 02:39 am Title says it all. I have looked the term up and found several threads here about Partial Collar errors but haven't found one yet that explains what exactly causes it or what to look for. Is it like it sounds? When the coin is only partly seated in the collar during the strike?How do you diagnose it as a Partial Collar Error? Do these command much of a premium? Thanks for any info...Mont.

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 06/26/2017 03:16 am There's a short explanation here: http://minterrornews.com/priceguide...lcollar.html You may also want to look into "railroad rim" errors as they are at least related if not the same. I don't know about premiums. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020 In Memory of Tootallious 3-31-1964 to 4-15-2020 In Memory of T-BOP 10-12-1949 to 1-19-2024 Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/26/2017 1:08 pm Where the collar is touching the edge on the dollars, you can see the reeds. Where is there is no collar the edge is not contained, making it look larger and not reeds present. Report this Post to the Staff
biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 06/26/2017 1:19 pm Partial collar errors can be tilted(shown below) or straight(coop's image), the part of the edge not confined by the collar will have a larger than normal diameter and will lack reeding.

MontCollector Pillar of the Community United States 2403 Posts	Posted 06/26/2017 2:34 pm Thanks all! Nice link Spruett. I also saved it in my favorites list. Thank for the pictures coop and biokemist. Very helpful I can now say with certainty that the Kennedy half dollar I have is definitely a Partial Collar error. And now I know what to look for in the future. Thanks again...Mont. Edited by MontCollector 06/26/2017 2:35 pm Report this Post to the Staff
