datadragon Pillar of the Community United States 1648 Posts	Posted 04/01/2024 5:37 pm I gave a longer overview of the dropped letter error here http://goccf.com/t/442928 You will see others posted such as http://goccf.com/t/449182 However what you are showing while it does in the first photo look like a D, your example does not appear to be from any source on the coin and is most likely Pareidolia where you simply see things that are not what you think they are...but that can be fun sometimes like below, in this case just has no value.

I have this article on Pareidolia and the science behind why we see faces in objects https://www.mentalfloss.com/article...d-pareidolia As far as general errors, consider starting with a basic book like strike it rich with pocket change 5th edition as this can give you some things to search for while learning.
