Marv65 Bedrock of the Community United States 10484 Posts	Posted 03/21/2025 4:35 pm Mint Error 2000 Lincoln Cent Struck on 2000 VA 25c PCGS MS65. A little Mint Employee "assist" on this one? How would a Quarter get into the minting chamber of a press set up for Lincoln cents? https://www.greatcollections.com/Coin/1539089/ Report this Post to the Staff

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5770 Posts	Posted 03/22/2025 12:42 am 16609, to me, it doesn't look like the collar was involved. Is this the time period where they were smuggling out the "assisted errors" in the oil pan of the forklift? Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff
