What do you mean 2nd coin?? Might have been stacked or in a roll, but if you mean the planchet was a coin and a over strike ~ I see no indication of it. Appears as damage or wear. Jim
Actually that does look like a misplaced mintmark, but what do I know, I'll wait till the pros on here comment.
Because none of the coins you post with these types of "errors" are NOT uncirculated and show tons of wear and damage from circulation it is impossible that they can be considered anything but random damage. Find one of these "misplaced MMs" on an uncirculated specimen and then you will have a better case. Then that type of error would be an interesting Find. Good luck and keep looking.
So what u are trying to say is if the coin wasnt damaged it would be there and if it is damaged it won't be there hmm
No I am not saying that. I said what I said. It is random damage as is all the other damage and wear on the coins you post asking if it is a misplaced or fallen MM. It is there with all the other damage on the coin, but it is not a misplaced MM.
You're wasting your time. He doesn't want to learn for himself. If you think I'm exaggerating, go back and read all of his previous threads. Chris
Another one who would be a lot happier actually collecting coins instead of wasting time on pocket change in a fruitless search for “errors.”
Oh I know and THAT would be a waste of time! I know that sometimes hearing it in a slightly different way can help some people grasp the concept...and some people are just not "coachable" to use a golf expression. But you are correct that I will not be trying to explain things any more to Doug.
It means that in your search for errors.... Once a coin has seen forty-odd years of wear, dropped, thrown, run over and who knows what else... It becomes somewhat moot. Yes that does appear interesting. However after a lifetime of service, it really could be just about anything.
Doug, why are all the coins you find struck on other coins? Are you from an alternate dimension where that is common mint practice?
