For you error coin collectors.......

Since I took these images in response to Braddick's thread about the difference between "die trial stikes" and "struck through" coins, and have them on my hard drive, I thought I would share these with some of you error collectors. I sent some to ANACS who graded them as MS-60 "struck through" errors. I sold one to Fred Weinberg who had PCGS grade it. It came back as a MS-62 "Die Trial Strike". Go figure......MS-62?????

    That's really cool.
    Here's one of my favorite struck thru.
    Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.

    Very interesting, I too wonder how they arrive at a 62 on that one Danimage Would it be possible to have one of those grade higher?------------BigE

    The lines on it are from the cloth it was struck thru.
