So I bought a collection and there are 7 1962 3 being this guitar error and the other 4 Harpe error I was going to ask what error it was but I did some research and found this and 6 have die cracks on bottom of the Queens bust but this one looks like metal sitting on metal covering the whole bottom where no initials can be seen.. let me know what you guys think and possible value of it and the harpes they are all roughly the same condition

Do not get caught up with these minor varieties, hard to sell afterwards.

however both the Harp and Guitar are not common varieties, so for sure keepers.

I thought they were pretty cool and that I have so many of them the ones I'm calling Harpe look like the guitar has worn off and only 1 or 2 full strings make it

Actually, I have sold every mint example I have ever found, at a decent premium. The variety collecting community in Quebec loves these...
