Seeker_101 Pillar of the Community United States 1791 Posts	Posted 01/03/2025 6:40 pm What I found is as you might expect.....a lot of trash such as 1996 P quarter with rare long E error and 1997 P dime with off-center, clipped rare error (parking lot coin). But 2 listings I thought I'd share....(I don't think either are deliberately trying to mislead people.) Tiktok / Youtube follower: every coin comes with a note https://www.ebay.com/itm/1549181348...on=view_item This next one I found a little disconcerting as the seller states that they are a member of ANA and CONECA, yet list errors and varieties as "Die breaks, die cracks,cuds, trail lines, grease die, missing designer initials number or letter, blogs, annealing, clogged numbers in dates, lamination cracks, collar breaks". I do see 2 potentially real errors in the lousy pictures. How many do you see? https://www.ebay.com/itm/2762483248...on=view_item Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73798 Posts	Posted 01/03/2025 7:48 pm The last one has me scratching my head. I only see one coin with a Clipped Planchet. The others look normal. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6464 Posts	Posted 01/03/2025 7:53 pm It's not like there is a test to join those clubs. I see a possible double clipped Wheat cent, and another mangled Lincoln that probably isn't a clip. No errors on the rest, unless you count that 0.05% misaligned die quarter that is definitely within Mint tolerances. Report this Post to the Staff
Seeker_101 Pillar of the Community United States 1791 Posts	Posted 01/03/2025 7:53 pm I see a possible off-center cent near the bottom of the pic but so not see anything off center in the second pic. Might just be a misaligned die. Everything else must be chips and/or minor cracks. But what is a blog error? Report this Post to the Staff

I6609 Pillar of the Community United States 1228 Posts	Posted 01/04/2025 05:04 am I'm always concerned when error and verity coins are advertised with out reference numbers on DDO and DDR's. Report this Post to the Staff

Pertinax Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2133 Posts	Posted 01/04/2025 3:12 pm I wouldn't buy either lot. I don't believe anything for sale on the internet that I can't see in detail. I assume people that don't align their coins the right way up are deliberately intending to deceive. Report this Post to the Staff
