Ha ha ha, can you imagine the flap that occured in the front office when they noticed the incorrect date? Something like this: "You idiot!! These were supposed to say 1803, not 1804. Now they are worthless!! Well, go figure out some way to get rid of these, maybe you can put them in some of those left over 1834 gold PROOF sets and give them away there!".
Andy - Why not post the whole set? ....or do you want to make ccoinguy 1 seem like an amateur?
