This is very interesting. Hello & Top of the day to you! At the present time while I am still buying and searching through more rolls for more like this one I'm sorry to say I will have to refrain from using the total picture of the denomination etc at the present time. I will reveal it once I send it of and have it returned probably at the same time I plan to submit the dropped letter. Hope you can understand and appreciate my discretion. Thank You for your input. Though it would be nice if one replies that they vote either for number 1 or for number 2. Report this Post to the Staff
Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 09/20/2006 2:38 pm Hi Mishap It looks like a piece of the collar has been clashed between the dies,, and the damage transfered to the following coins. Very interesting,, and just for fun,, I have made a private guess as to which coin series the pic is of !! Rick Edited by Metalman 09/20/2006 2:40 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 09/20/2006 5:48 pm I made a guess as well, but will just wait until he finally says what it is, also I beleive it was come sort of clash as well, the only problem is it looks like a denticle clash and the coin I thought it was doesn't have denticles around the rim so not 100% sure my coin is the correct one Report this Post to the Staff
errorfinder Valued Member United States 380 Posts	Posted 09/20/2006 6:18 pm my vote is #1 = DING though I sure would not be disappointed, if I were wrong on this one . it would be much more interesting if it were indeed raised from some damaged die.keep us up too date...

mishap-coins Valued Member United States 344 Posts	Posted 09/20/2006 8:28 pm The coin in question does have reeding on the edge so you must know it does comes from a dime,quarter,silver dollar or half dollar. The error is a 2001 coin if this helps any. I am sure everyone is narrowing it down. To be honest it is realy irrelevant if one knows the denomination & mint mark , though it is has been good for a forum question. I may resolve the question of the mint and denomination before I have it slabed. Keep thinking Report this Post to the Staff

Tpatna Pillar of the Community United States 1626 Posts	Posted 09/21/2006 06:43 am Indent into the die made by a breakaway piece of the collar in the coin press? A 2001 P Kennedy perhaps? Edited by Tpatna 09/21/2006 06:46 am Report this Post to the Staff
jcook54 Pillar of the Community United States 533 Posts	Posted 09/21/2006 08:36 am It looks like an ding, but I would be glad if I were wrong! It kinda looks below the field. Please do keep us posted. Report this Post to the Staff
Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 09/21/2006 09:33 am Looks like a buffalo silver dollar or a ASE to me but as I said I am not 100% sure which or if it is either. It looks more like a Buffalo than a ASE from what I can tell from the picture, but I have been wrong before and will probably be wrong again, heck it wouldn't be the first time today I have been wrong Edited by Bryan1315 09/21/2006 09:37 am Report this Post to the Staff
