Murazor Valued Member Poland 114 Posts	Posted 05/25/2011 07:41 am It's a comparison - standard vs. 'blank' ones. Interesting, but the price - nearly $7k? Too much. Report this Post to the Staff

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 05/25/2011 10:42 am Very interesting, do you happen to know how the edge lettering is applied? The US Presidential dollars debuted in 2007 as the only edge lettered US coins. Of course, reports of missing edge lettering surfaced within weeks of release. For business strikes, the edge lettering was applied to the planchet by a bar die press and then the coin was struck- it was a two part process so it would be fairly easy to skip a step. The proof Presidential dollars had the edge lettering applied with a three segment lettered collar at the time of striking so it would be impossible to get one without edge lettering unless someone intentionally switched out the collars. I think the value of the Olympic coin will be dependent on how the error actually occurred. Report this Post to the Staff
