A different kind of coin collection

Now you can read books, articles, forums and serach the world wide web but the best way to learn is hands on exsperiance as most things in life.

Not these coins I have collected as a side collection with my errors. These give me endless information and insight into PMD´s. There are even some coins I really like and appriciate. With some even having mistery attached. Now i´m far better in spotting pmd´s then ever before.

At first I collected these in a bucket then I started to enjoy them because I came back to them when ever I had questions regarding errors.

So my advice to error collectors never throw the PMD´s away because like me you will start to like them more and more and even give them a good resting place.

Interesting display, Siggi! This'll make a nice reference for all the novices who have found that "Extremely Rare Mint Error!!!"

 

cool collection. What do you make of this? http://cgi.ebay.com/ICELAND-100-Kro...719?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item43a2ac02bf PMD or genuine error?

 

ive been saving all of the corrodedl, chipped, roadrashed, flattened cents that i have been finding and putting them into mason jars according to what is wrong with them

 

Nice collection Siggi, thats right up my alley, I like the oddball stuff that most call junk...

 

Many people collect Hobo Nickels and love charm coins. These could be considered PMD coins also.

 

Whats a PMD?

 

Post Mint Damage

 

Nice collection Siggi. Are any of those counterstamped, or are they just randomly damaged. I wish I could get a closer look at them, they're very interesting.

So if you get a coin that has deep cuts of edges cut, you should keep them?
