    V. Kurt Bellman Yes, I'm blunt! Get over your "feeeeelings".

    No. Such. Variety. Exists. Somebody on eBay can, and often do, make up stuff out of whole cloth. And the same applies tenfold for YouTube.

    You should see my "Krishna in Melba Toast", before you make blanket statements like that. :troll:

    Its a shame that a site made to share your findings and learn, you get ridiculed for sharing something you thought was something. Thanks group

    Don't take it personally. It's a meme around here. "Errors and varieties which are not". We blame YouTube and its culture.

    ... and learn.

    Exactly. But you seem a tiny bit resistant to that part. ;)

    That's what's bringing some of the ridicule down upon you.

    Go ahead and argue some more, if you like. You'll only make it worse.

    Believe what you want to believe. It seems you will, regardless.

    It's obvious you're not going to listen unless someone tells you what you want to hear.

    Well you have received some good knowledge even I think you would agree to that but you will get some of the others when you make statements like your childish.

    Most of the statements the kidding around but I have found out if you open a can of worms be prepared to receive it.

    Just take a breather you will receive a lot of knowledge here some of these guys have been doing this 30 40 50 years and they're willing to help free of charge. JMO

    Take a look at the thread posted before yours.
    Says he sees a 3 and a zero in Morgans lips, and a D or p next to her ear. The coin is damaged and harshly cleaned. Pareidolia is a live I tell ya. You can thank NOOB tube and other ridiculous publications.

    Things like that you need to be a little skeptical first, until it's proven to be something.
    Now there are legitimate coins that have other numbers on them. Either from clashed dies, or double struck or whatever.
    But when you see something like this, it's just a coincidence that you can see the number 5 on there. It's not any kind of true mint error.
    An error is something that happens at the mint. They are supposed to have QC and destroy errors that they find before they go to circulation, but some still get out.
    Damage occurs after something has left the mint.
    In this case, seeing something that sort of looks like a 5 on a coin that isn't really there, is what is known as pareidolia. Which has been explained here before. And in this thread. Don't be upset. But true errors are very rare among the billions of coins that have been produced. It's unlikely to pick up a handful of coins and find an error.
    You Tube videos which get thousands of views, give people the perception
    that there are million dollar errors in the change in their pocket. There really isn't. Yes there are errors. Yes they are valuable. Super difficult to find one in circulation. It happens. But it's a needle in a haystack.

    We try to keep things loose and fun here. Please never take it personally. Michael K. is right — it’s lottery odds to take a pile of coins and get a significant find. But you learn something, whether or not you realize it, with each examination.

    Some people learn.

    Some don't.

    We shall see which kind our thread author is.

    The question is, have you come to accept the answers you've been given?

    It looks more like an S to me. Hey, say it's an S, and you have the only one!

    No, it's a shame that when you get answers from people with years of numismatic experience and countless hours of study of the minting process and you still fail to learn
