A new trend? Error coin image on CoinFacts

The lead image on CoinFacts for 1981-P 10C is a very nice example of an off center, first strike brockage error. This is the first time I recall seeing an image of an error coin on CoinFacts.
Is this a new trend or something that has been going on all along? Or do you think it was unintentional?

It happens all the time. It happens because the coin wasn't submited under the error service so it's certified as a regular coin.
a very neat and i gotta assume very rare o/c mirror brockage!

It still has the spec number of a 1981-P 10c, even if it's an error and submitted as such, so it'll come up on that page. The top auction price listed there of $1093 is for a capped die struck on a struck cent.
