Sac $ error question

Just wondering. Are there any Sac dollar errors with a reeded edge?

    Yes. I use to have a Sacagawea dollar struck on a Maryland state quarter and it had a reeded edge.

    A reeded Sac is an error. Any pics?

    The Chinese will probably make one sooner or later.

    Aside from an overstruck quarter or SBA, isn't a reeded Sac essentially an impossibility?

    Dime.

    I do not believe it could happen on accident at the mint.

    I have seen counting machine marks on the edges of coins that give the appearance of a reeded edge, but these are just damaged.

    what planchets are the quarter / sac mules struck on and what kind of collar?

    Never heard of one. Would have to be one of the 2000-dated pieces struck in 1999, mis-struck with an SBA collar.

    On struck quarters which are smaller than the sac planchets so the reeding stayed even if struck in collar.

    Not a reeded error, but by the wrong edge lettering.

    The only confirmed example of 2007-D Sacagawea dollar with Presidential dollar edge lettering instead of the intended plain edge sold for $17,161.10 in a July 15, (2012) auction by GreatCollections.

    I have not heard of a Sac with reeded edge error (other than what @ErrorsOnCoins stated)...Would be a strange one and would almost have to be intentional. Cheers, RickO
