As part of my Type set, I am trying to include Blank Planchets. It's not easy finding them, but I am having fun.

    I have a few, three or four cents and one quarter I found in a roll. I didn't realize they could be graded as well. Nice! Now I'm considering grading!!!!

    I'm surprised they were attributed properly.

    Why do you say it's not easy to find them?

    I collect them and have a pretty large collection.

    PCGS Grades Them: AU55...MS61...MS65 or whatever.
    NGC doesn't assign a grade at all.
    ANACS grades them ALL MS60.
    ICG uses BU, Genuine, or MS60.

    Sorry, you're right. Except I collect them for my PCGS Type Set AU or better.

    Why is a blank considered a mint error? I know it should not have left the mint but still....
