  • Hi CoinMan,

    In general, error coins (brockages, clipped planchets, off-centers) are not included in the PCGS Population Report, but that they are included in the totals for their respective "normal" coin. There are so many different types of errors that it would be extremely unwieldy to list them all. The Pop Report is driven by coin numbers...a listing of error coins would have to be driven by cert numbers, thus requiring the listing of every single error of a given coin number. You would not be able to heft that book!
