1971-S BS Ike with a rim burr, are they rare? (grade posted)

Is there much premium added to an Ike if it has a rim burr error? The coin is in the MS63/MS64 range.

They are not particularly rare, but that is a nice one. I've seen them go for about $20

No but I'll take it off your hands!

Actually, I don't really know as the only other one I've seen was on a 1974-D that had been killed in a Corrosion War but never on a silver coin.

Lee,

That was sort of my point on this coin. Mass produced and bagged in bulk coins will have these from time to time. However, the silver series I thought got a bit more supervision during production and therefore errors on them are harder to find.

I had not seen one on a silver before and almost threw it into the junk silver pile thinking it was PMD until I saw the foldover pressed into the reverse.

You may or may not be aware but the 1971-S's were bagged up for shipment to the packager which is why most of them are beat to death!

And since they were bagged I would also expect that quality control was not real high on the list! Possibly not even touched by human hands during their manufacture.
