I had reached out to just answers expert coin appraisals. And was informed I had nothing of significance so I argued about the one from the reverse being stamped on the in god we trust line. Please someone tell me I’m right cause this quack was making me angry. I’ve been doing this long enough to spot and know an error as clear as this!

    Yet this is possible but the reverse being caught one the corner is impossible cmon now!

    The first give away is the use of the word "stamped" in the post, the second give away is everything else. I suggest you start with the premise that you know nothing, pay attention here and be patient. This isn't a Hobby where expert status, even if it is ever attained, comes overnight.

    Not that it matters at this point but pictures of the reverse would also help tell the story.

    Here ya go, I just made this error for you. ;)
    Notice the ONE stamped in the field.

    Every "error guy" tried this experiment in their garage to help understand just how easy it is to "try" to fake an error coin.

    Heads up, it is super easy to do, but super easy to spot as a fake.

    so why’s it always jump to its fake???

    Because it just about always is.

    I'm not an expert, but I can see that your coin is damaged.

    Well, should be clear now you are wrong; hope you find the time to actually watch and listen and maybe you might find the Hobby enjoyable.

    if it’s possible for you to do that with a hammer why is it not possible that the minting machine struck it multiple times like a capped dye I’m not meaning to argue but I pulled this from a bank roll and I just find it hard to believe that anyone even attempting to fake a error would strike it multiple times to this extent. And all kinds of mis-struck beaten out of shape coins make it out of the mint like the 70d so why’s it always jump to its fake???

    A multiple strike in a press does NOT look like yours.

    I am an expert and that coin is damaged.

    Are you certain you're not a "supposed to be expert"?

    Never trust a self-proclaimed expert. ;)

    You just referred to yourself as an expert on self-proclaimed experts

    OK enough of the pile on....its damage, to the OP..next question?

    I am also an expert, though if saying that means I am self-proclaiming it, I guess I just disqualified myself from commenting? Anyway, your coin is damaged. Good luck finding someone to agree with you.

    I enjoy the effort you all put in with your dick beaters to make a fake that’s comical that first guy must of used his mouse hand cause he didn’t beat it very well but thanks for the input everyone. cause never in history has the mint ever released any restruck off center misshaped or even capped dye coins every error coin in existence can be counterfeited! An admin or moderator can gladly delete this post! Obviously Im wrong cause something can be duplicated but not done by a machine that spits out millions of errors a year

    They look different when faked. Everyone on this thread recognizes the fakes as fakes. We weren't fooled by the faked error.

    Please take the responses in the spirt they were given. You're coin is not a true mint produced error. Thats a fact and facts are neutral, not good or bad.. Most important thing for you to do now is to look at a lot of true error coins and buy some books on the subject and learn, it can be fun! My favorite : The Error Coin Encyclopedia Paperback – January 1, 1991 by Arnold Margolis. You can buy it on Amazon. Many other books available also. Good Hunting!

    I won't jump into the fray as I don't think I'm an expert in anything. Been doing coins almost 70 years now but still learning. Long ago I realized that PCGS is the EXPERT and everyone else was just pretending. Send it in and pony up the $35 or so and see what they say.

    You gentlemen are very patient with OP's like this, kudos. Seems like they usually devolve in a similar manner, unfortunately.
