    Ld it looks like a struck thru late stage die cap to me and mabe we could also say a small piece of cloth at the same time. I thought I heard someone say a few days ago a coin could not have two errors at once or something like that. This one kinda reminds me of my unusal cent coin. notice around the edge of your coin how smooth it is and the letters are about totally missing plus part of the date.struck thru cloth coins usually still shows all the details because the cloth is so soft.

    That's what I've been trying to do more and more! I scored an awesome 1956-D Wheatie in probably EF today that still has luster and some toning too!

    To the OP: Awesome coin! That is too cool. I have yet to find a nice error, but I still have hope. :D

    Nice find :) I did want to ask if the error is not a mint generated error, at least I'm assuming it's not, would the coin still be worth more than face value? Otherwise what's to stop people from damaging/defacing coins? :) Just curious :D

    If it happens at the mint, it's an error. If it happens outside the mint, it's damage (PMD- Post Mint Damage) and not an error.

    Hi Matt,
    Now I know why you paid for dinner when we met in Orlando. You wanted the change!
    Thanks again by the way.

    There are lots of fake homemade errors on the auction site. People get conned all the time and happily leave positive feedback. The buyers need to educate themselves about the minting process so they can tell the difference. This coin is clearly a real mint error.
