    Not an Error but a Mistake someone made doing this

  • jayPemjayPem Posts: 4,081 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Before the boom in zincoln threads, this post would have blown up with a variety of major bust errors..
    Now that everyone's microscopes are zoomed in on what may or may not be super valuable doubling, no one gives a darn about some crusty old half dollar.
    🤔
    Or in other words, I don't have any cool cbh errors (yet)..😅

    You can only upload JPGs, not PDFs, so your attachments are not viewable.

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

    Minor error ... planchet lamination

    The mint had a problem in 1822.






    Q: When does a collector become a numismatist?



    A: The year they spend more on their library than their coin collection.

    Put a bit of super glue in that gap, clamp overnight and it would be as good as new! 😂

    @lkeigwin….I recall seeing that one in one of Sheridan’s MB catalogs.

    Likely it once belonged to Henry Hilgard….very notable and well respected collector of CBH error coins.

    Incredible coin!

  • lkeigwinlkeigwin Posts: 16,892 ✭✭✭✭✭

    True, Dave. Around 10 years ago I shot another couple dozen of Hilgard's amazing errors. I have suspicions about who owns them now.

    PMD..
    obviously two 1809 halves were sitting on top of each other. They got run over in a bank parking lot by some one leaving with 20 boxes of memorial cents.

    Some of the coins that were made off center almost look like baseballs with the edge looking like stitching! Awesome coins!

  • BustDMsBustDMs Posts: 1,648 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Mis aligned dies. Obverse appears to be an off center but reverse normal.
