   I have quite a few type 2 coins. These were very inexpensive. I am only asking about the dark mark on the raised surface. It is strange only these 2 first production coins have it, out of the 12 types 2 coins I have. I attached a pull back view. Issue is, you can't see it at less than 6 or 7 magnification.

   Question by Pilot123 · March 22, 2022 1:57PM · Home› U.S. Coin Forum

   I have two 2021 first production type 2 coins that have the exact same "marking" on them. None of my non-first production Type 2 coins have it. I am wondering if all first production coins have it or not. I have attempted to capture the issue in images. The dark spots appear to be chips when viewed in person. Are they…

   That is what I thought at first as well, my suspicion is: Since the mint themselves is joining in on the marketing, (Creating this first production genre, first day of production, last day of production etc...) is there going to be identifiable marks on coins for first production going forward. This suspicion is the whole…

   The U.S. Mint’s plans to offer the last day of production of 2021 American Eagle, Reverse of 1986 silver and gold bullion coins and the first day output of the Reverse of 2021 silver and gold bullion coins to its authorized purchasers were revised somewhat, because the bureau could not meet the mintage numbers originally…

   Huh? I don't get this comment. How did the mint create this category? They did make some PNCs (Philatelic Numismatic Covers) for the state quarters and Sacagawea dollars that included coins from the first day of production, but all of the various slab labels for SEs, etc. are concoctions of the grading companies.

   The various early/first releases/issues have been around on TPG labels for years. The mint is late to the game.

   The mint never joined in the marketing of first strike. The mint literally created this category themselves. Things change in all collectible markets. As you can probably tell from my pic, I also collect classic cars. There are identifiable things on cars for production dates. If they are going down this road, and they…

   There are no marks to separate first or last production from a bullion run of another time

   I think you are putting too much emphasis on the "first production" angle. If the mark is a striking anomaly then it may just have been present on one die, in which case ended up with two coins from the same fie. If the "chip" is incuse, then in is likely a struck through error. These can be domewhat repeatable if the…

    Can you pull back some and get a bigger view? Just in case, can you return them?
