    I welcome everyone to post your best favorite error coins. Mine is one of Best Example a Double Denomination with Two Full Dates 1995-a key date.

    DOUBLE DENOMINATION ERRORS
    One of the most expensive, popular, and desired types of errors are the double denominations. This error happens when a coin is struck on a previously struck coin of another denomination. Examples are a cent on a struck dime, and a nickel on a struck cent. The most dramatic are those with considerable design visible from the original strike.

    Hope everyone like this.

    I am pretty sure that was NGC slab and a very nice error nickel on a cent planchet. What is the grade?:thumb:

    My Favorite error

    I bought this a few years ago and sold it to Fred Weinberg at the ANA show two years ago. The center is steel and the cent weighed 4.0 grams.

    The way I look on your photograph the steel cent center and a copper cent joined together as they called it MULE error.- Lucky Fred.

    Well, Fred paid a very nice price for it! It helped pay for my family's 7 day cruise to Jamaica!

    This is the one that really got me into collecting, turned out not to be a true error but whoever made it did an excellent job. When I got this out of a change machine at work, I started seeing dollar signs but after doing a little research and a closer inspection the dollar signs went away but it makes for a good story, just wish it would've been the real thing.

    This would be my favorite. I cherry picked this 1922 P VAM 12A Peace Dollar from a Coin store for $36 and now I have to get her graded. Any takers on what she would grade at? Thanks.

    I thought you had it on ebay? I did check your site the other day but found that it was unrenewed.

    @SSG Gonzo: I think it graded at Ms-65/66, it almost looks PL in the pic, really nice :thumb:

    EDIT: I don't know if the photo makes it out to look better though, wait for another opinion.
