Always great to see errors on gold!

Two nice PCGS coins without TrueViews. So what can one do? Get Great Photos from @PhilArnold!


Of course, TrueViews are nice when they are had! Here's a Mankiller quarter which is a struck-through grease error on a shattered die / retained cud variety.

    Here is a small struck through that I discovered while preparing a submission of Daniel Carr edge-lettered coins for ANACS.

    I never noticed it prior to sending it to DCarr years ago to be edge-lettered with my requested "KILROY WAS HERE" text. I'll pay the $12 extra to have ANACS add the error to the label. :)

    Gold error coins are very hard to find especially those non-intentional Mint Error.

    Non-intentional gold error coins are very rare, but seem to be much more common than intentional gold error coins, at least from a relative perspective.

    Looks like struck thru something. Not sure, you tell me.

    I know struck through grease errors are common on steel cents, but I figured I'd share

    I think I opened a beer and the carbonation caused it to get on the holder.

    Wow, that's a great coin and a great find! Love the snowboarding motif created and popularized in Vermont!

    Do you have a name for this? Perhaps something like the Extra Glove error?

    That reminds me of "Pitting". Usually on Morgans.
    Very odd that there are fragments?

    Awesome find!
    Your post reminds me of a modern mint set, I bought last year with a sealed "S.T." coin, inside the cellophane!
    I think it's a 2021 or 2022 Jefferson?
    I'll post when I find it.
    :D

    My first thought was struck thru but I believe others said it might be lamination or delamination.

    I respectfully disagree. I think this is a retained strike through. Probably copper debris

    I guess it could be a lamination. Doesn't look like it to me. I could be wrong

    My mistake. I would say that the 54 is maybe a dual error. The area in question is a retained struck thru copper debris on the edge and there is a retained cud on the reverse

    Years ago via Gallery Mint's generosity, Ron & Joe executed my hand drawn "Special Orders" circa 1996.

    For me these are fun to perfectly mate & separate as they remain raw.

    Large 1c Struck thru a Flipped Over Mercury Dime. I made 2 of these sets using this die pair, one set I gifted to Fred Weinberg long ago.
