mgoodm3 had a bit too much fun looking into the abyss with this close-up shot of the Cracked Planchet Peace $1... that's only about less the 1/4" into the coin. This Peace $1 came back with Ms. Liberty looking a bit violated!
To Err Is Human.... To Collect Err's Is Just Too Much Darn Tootin Fun!

That is the very rare "Grand Canyon Peace Dollar error" You were very lucky to find that one!!
Sorry Stefanie, even though it looks nice in the photos, it would never slab.
When I bought this (off an E-bay picture) and got it in I was sadly disappointed as it has been whizzed.
I kept it anyway as it was not that much money and it was still ubber cool with all of the cracks and cuds. Some day I will find another example that has some original skin and replace it. You gotta know they struck many more examples right up until the dies fell apart!
