    Funny how the collector returned one to the dealer because he does not collect error coins.

    Stuff is going to happen, and as long as I've been alive something gets screwed up every day. It's kind of cool when it happens with coins.

    Practice makes perfect & nobody is perfect. So, practice being nobody.

    Isn't it great to have accidental cherrypickers that find coins for you but then decline to buy them? image



    << <i>Rongey told Coin World Aug. 21 that the Missing Edge Lettering Cleveland dollar he sold to Weinberg (neither dealer would disclose the price paid) had been turned down by a collector who had come into his store July 12 to buy the latest Presidential dollar.

    Rongey said he had purchased two $500 boxes of rolled Cleveland dollars from the U.S. Mint and placed a roll of coins from each Mint into plastic tubes from which collectors could purchase single examples.

    One collector, who has been purchasing two examples of each Presidential dollar from each Mint, informed Rongey he could not find the Mint mark on one of the strikes from the tube containing Philadelphia Mint coins. When Rongey told him the coin was an error missing the edge lettering, the collector asked for a replacement with edge lettering because he didn’t collect errors. >>
