Two more Jefferson errors. 1980






Not my writing on the 2x2s. Was told they were pulled out of an original 1980 roll of jeffersons about 30 years ago.

I actively collect, buy and sell US minted Philippine coins from 1903-1945. I am interested in anything during this period, Albums, Proof sets, collections, original rolls and bags, Cullion Leper colony coins etc.
Also a big fan of liberty seated coins.

    Interesting errors.... surprised to see that and also have full steps on the reverse (though I cannot ascertain that from the pictures, just the note on the 2x2). Cheers, RickO

    Struck through a die cap is my take, though the inverse Monticello confuses me, unless there was another struck coin stacked between the planchet and capped die when this one was made.

    First one is a mid/late stage brockage.

    Second one is from a thinning die cap, a
    later stage than the first piece.
