SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 03/29/2020 12:08 pm I've found a few with decently significant feeder finger errors, but I'm not really sure how common they are. I do see that they seem to sell for $5-$50 on ebay depending on the condition and severity, but I'm always a little suspicious of ebay sales as a measure of rarity since you never know if it's just people getting fleeced. Do people here set them aside? Edit: Added some pictures Edited by SamCoin 03/29/2020 3:05 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7508 Posts	Posted 03/29/2020 12:42 pm Not sure what you are exactly referring to as * finger feeder errors* there are no such errors except Feeder Finger Damage and roller lines damage on coins. And as for ebay That is not always an accurated information source, as a long time seller on ebay myself I admit that unfortunately it has become a haven for misidentified/counterfeits and damaged coins being sold as ERRORS! such as the one below that is currently going for $100 ( a clear damaged/gouged and beat up peice of Junk!! https://www.ebay.com/itm/LINCOLN-PE...AOSwGslecVMY Report this Post to the Staff
