Post your "W" Cent error coins.

I believe I may have one of the biggest major error coins for the West Point Cents produced in 2019.

    A metal shaving, if I had to guess. Very cool error.

    So, I just now found out that this coin was made three different ways. Uncirculated, Proof and Reverse Proof.

    Obviously, the OP is an RP which means I need errors in the other two to complete a "set"

    I have this Uncirculated "W" error which is a much smaller error altho still very rare....

    I now have an error coin for each of the three versions of the 2019 "W" Cent.

    This proof error is a big one. I now have two major errors in the Reverse Proof and Proof versions and a minor error in the UNC version. I need to Find a Major Error on a UNC W Cent.

  • KliaoKliao Posts: 5,663 ✭✭✭✭✭

    No, these are exceedingly rare.

    Just because they are all in one place means I have OCD :)
