Great stuff! I'm enjoying the show. Thanks for posting.

(Very Nice!)

History of The United States
Bronze 1980 Ronald Reagan Medals
Error and Correct



(Better images will replace these when I get a chance to photo them)
This one has me confused as the Franklin Mint issued 200 medals to complete this set during the years 1966 through 1977.
However, these medals are dated 1980 with a few relevant events on the reverse for the year.
Perhaps The Franklin Mint has continued on with the extensive set.
The set itself doesn't really interest me all that much. I am sure there are a few issues I'd be glad to own depending on the artwork and subject but I bought this pair for the error.

As you can see, One has incorrect spelling as NOVEMER and the other it has been corrected with NOVEMBER.
I have no idea how many times there were errors for this set but I have collected a small number of significant interesting error medals like this one.
I only wish this set was silver instead of bronze but glad to have found it.
Maybe there were silver ones issued too? I'll have to keep an eye out.

Part of my long awaited Mayflower set.

@TNG: It appears as if silver versions of these medals were struck.

Here's a link to a silver one with misspelling:https://www.worthpoint.com/worthope...an-430023388

Thank you commems. Since buying my pair, I found just another single bronze error and correct in separate places that are no longer available. I'll be looking for the silver ones more diligently now.

In 2018, the Royal Canadian Mint ( RCM) began issuing a colorized silver proof set that included a 36 mm silver commemorative medal instead of a 36 mm commemorative silver dollar.

The 2018 medal featured the RCM's original building in Ottawa (reverse) and its new, modern Winnipeg facility on the obverse. Primarily, the Ottawa facility strikes collector coins while the Winnipeg mint strikes the nation's circulation coins.
