does anyone collect 1 oz minting errors ?

ebaybuyer

its a 1oz indian round with an early state of a cud from the denticles to the wreath, enhanced by arrows.

There maybe someone who collects these...heck people collect out of State rocks.. To me it's just a silver bullion round and priced accordingly.

Cant make out the details on the coin. Pic is too small

That is a "retained die break" (aka "retained cud") and worth a little premium to an error collector. Usually the striking errors will command more of a premium, but since the errors can easily be "made to order," they do not command a strong premium relative to "official" coins from the Mint. The same can be said about modern tokens (e.g. amusement park or vending tokens).

No added collector value but an interesting error. Nice find.

No problem seeing that one... Cheers, RickO

I think I have one or two clipped 1oz silver rounds, but I normally wouldn't pay more than spot for one.

I own an interesting lead trial strike. One side is from a 1991 “Aloha From Hawaii” silver one-ounce round. The reverse is a generic (undated) Racine, Wisconsin, Whitman Publishing silver round die, with the Whitman globe logo, very lightly struck.

I see no logical connection between the two dies – probably just from different jobs done by the same private mint, and someone was testing the machines.

I have no idea what it's worth, but imagine an enthusiastic Red Book collector would cast an envious eye upon its otherworldly form!

I have an ASE, ninety something that was struck through a piece of wire I belive near the date. The coin was pictured in Error Trends magizine at the time of purchase.
