Hi, I consider myself as having a pretty good eye but I cannot tell which errors i have? I have a list of the "Ken Potter" listings see link:

P & D Tree and Rock DDR Errors

My errors appear to be neither and are all P mint. Is it possible that I have found a new one? Who can i send them to for verification instead of a grading company?

Michael, good idea! They are different enough that they might just be new varieties or possibly just different dies stages? This is not my area of expertise but I could tell you the grades they would get and a couple of them are 9 candidates but we will see..... Whoa 1,000 post...I'm a "collector" now instead of a veteran!

Satin finish coins?

Congrat's on the 1000 post's

They are satin finish. Can you find them in business strike rolls both P & D? How do you suppose DDR are in both? Does this mean satin finish coins are in mint bags and rolls or vice versa or is it a different situation with the DDR's?

I've heard DDR-038 for the other P Mint SF variety, check your coins against #38. I do not recall our coins looking like the pictures of #38, We'll see upon return.

Most of the 40 or so variety's are business strike coins. SF coins are, P mint DDO-004 and 038?? D mint SF coins DDO-001 and 003

Thanks Michael, that's good information.

WOW......

These MN errors have my head spinning. There are so many of them with new ones being found everytime you turn around, I think in the end the non-error coins will be the rare ones!

It is my opinion that they are far and few between. I have made an extensive search and did not find any of them in the satin finish sets i had just some new ones and then just 1 of one type and 2 or 3 of the others.

I have to agree with you Mark, many SF mint sets search and very few DDR's found!!!

We have a few examples listed one Ebay at the moment

2005 D Minnesota SF PCGS MS67 !!! Extra Tree DDR-001
