    Superb error!

    I'm not to blame on that one !

    I've rec'd some 'typo' error labels back
    myself, over the years.....it happens.

    this one is cute, especially with the OP's title -
    I got a laugh after my mind said 'wha?'

    Questions is, Do I keep it this way or send in for re-holdering?

    Keep it that way, it won't hurt you when you sell it, it might even add some curiosity to offer an error coin in an error holder.

    I just called. I am sending it back unless any of you want to pay a big premium for the label ;)

    PCGS Customer service is Awesome!!!!!

    They will be reholdering 3 of my 5 error coins from my first PCGS Submission.

    Thank you, Fred, and PCGS Customer Service.

    PCGS calls this a 5 cent piece. From a legal tender perspective would the mint, ignoring the error status, consider this a 1 cent coin? The question deriving from the idea that the underlying metal value at one time was the true value of coinage. I.E. a dollar was worth a dollar because it was struck on $1 worth of silver, not because of what design was struck on it. This is struck on 1 cent worth of copper, in theory? (Paper money being the exact opposite of course)

    The last dies to strike the coin is the denomination.

    Today, I got in a PCGS quarter struck on an aluminum finger feeder. What US coin is struck on aluminum ;)

    Need the following OBW rolls to complete my 46-64 Roosevelt roll set:
    1947-P & D; 1948-D; 1949-P & S; 1950-D & S; and 1952-S.
    Any help locating any of these OBW rolls would be gratefully appreciated!

    I've never seen a lower case mint mark on the insert.

    That makes it a triple error

    I agree. What is most interesting is what the coin could be called. We have heard of "prisoner" Cents.

    So cool! This is a "Prisoner" Jefferson.

    Neat error coin... I like the fact that both dates are readable..... and the mint marks as well. Cheers, RickO

    It's a Nickel.

    It happens to be struck on a struck Cent.

    But it's a Nickel struck on a Cent.

    I am/was tempted.

    But I wanted two of my other coins reholdered and this one was so obvious that I figured it would make it a free ride, which it is.

    Plus the real value is in the error coin and not the plastic. I can not see it adding value.

    The other coins to go for reholdering are the crooked silver dime struck thru cloth that will now have the word "silver" on the insert. The third coin is a really cool only known PROOF state quarter with a struck in wire (rolled in wire bristle) but, the error was mounted on the reverse of the slab, duh! Big errors need to be upfront on the front of the slab.

    Now Fred. No one is blaming you. Yet...... >:)

    Make sure you write "Reverse UP"
    on the submission Flip itself, just
    to be sure it's slabbed that way.

    Thank you, Fred, But on a State Quarter is the reverse the reverse? The error is on the portrait.

  • FredWeinbergFredWeinberg Posts: 5,858 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Sorry - I just read the part that the coins' error was on the
    wrong side, State Quarter, so I though you meant it was
    the opposite......I didn't fully read the description.

    In this case, you don't have to write anything on the submission flip.
