Nothing real serious or anything but they will stand out around my off center cents and clipped planchets and other more common stuff I have.

    I had never personally seen a saddle strike with a date before so I was happy to get one

    Good stuff. I particularly like the Jefferson paper clip.

    The blank had improper metal mixture
    from the strip it was punched out of;

    After it was struck, that impurity split
    apart - called a Lamination (or de-lam)
    and it's what I call a raised lamination flap.

    All due to an impurity in the planchet strip itself.

    I have always had error coins in my inventory but most are quite common. Such as off center cents, clips, laminations, and that sort of stuff. I do alot of shows on the east coast. Nothing as big as baltimore but normally most of the state shows and larger club shows and I have had alot of customers asking me for errors that are a little more rare. Most dont ask for stuff in the thousands of dollars but stuff that is a little bit harder then what I carry now.

    Yes mam, I picked them all up at once along with about 100 more common errors like off centers and other coins with issues. These were just the nicer errors I though.

    Thx for the explanation.

    I think it is the paper in the 2x2 that is confusing me. On the obv the paper goes under and through the significant lamination, but the paper on the reverse is confusing me. The pics are slow to load for me so once I get them back I will look again.

    Not sure what you mean - the photo of the
    reverse of the nickel shows the slip of paper
    correctly 'slid' in.........right?

    Nice group. I really like the Jeff. and Buff. That's what I like about Lams./Delams. No 2 are ever exactly alike. Each are unique. O/C are nice especially if one is to do a clock display, but for me become too common. But the Lams./Delams. have always interested me, other than the 55DD, the most due to the uniqueness factor.

    I hope no one thinks I'm actually trying to promote my inventory. It was just a title name. If its upsetting someone I'll try and change the title.

    I still haven't figured out that promote button. I figured you were kidding but just figured I'm sure it would upset someone so just easier to change it. I have some other errors I'm going to throw on here tomorrow for a post

    I do not collect errors... however, I have this strange fascination with them. I always look at them and wonder about their origin.... I have learned a lot from Fred W., Capt. Henway, and ErrorsonCoins..... Cheers, RickO

    Very nice error coins!

    I've been inventorying coins for 45 years, but there are no other inventoryors in my family. I also inventory fossils and seashells. I have inventoried a couple of error coins.
