Hello there, I collect Malaysian error coin, as I am from Malaysia. This so-called "varieties" of "GC mintmark missing" actually is misleading.
1. GC is not a mintmark. It is a designer's initial. It stands for Geoffrey Colley, the designer of both obverse and reverse of the Malaysia 1st series coin, the Parliament Series.
2. Recently a catalogue listed these "GC omitted" by a new variety, and values it approximately 30% of normal coin with GC mark with the same condition. Error collector community in Malaysia (which is very small) disagrees with this. The missing GC is actually due to filled die error.
