Whopper Kennedy Errors! I mean, Day-um!

I did not know that Dr. Berry collected half dollars as well!

Fake or not still cool to look at.

 

They look normal to me.

 

The foldover and off center are very cool.

 

I’m with Rick, Chinese junk.

 

How on Earth would these make it out of the mint? Something seems a little fishy, but I know very little about errors. In fact, the older I get, the littler I know. LOL

 

Those are unbelievable. How can something like that get out of the Mint? They surely couldn't be found CRHing.

 

The mint hires an unscrupulous employee that fabricates an error coin. The hiring is a mistake made by the mint in the course of regular production. Still a mint error!

These don't strike me as fabricated though.

 

Anybody watch James Bond's "Diamonds are Forever". It takes more than one person to make these "fakes"/"errors".

 

Most of them look reasonble, except for the Nickel-on-Half. There's really no way that this can happen; the odds are about as likely as a nail being organically fed into the presses...

 

More from me about these tomorrow.

Stay tuned...

 

No that is an off center nickel that was then struck between the die and a previously struck coin

Frankly though, none of them look completely believable, and the longer I look the less believable they become.

 

You're totally right. You Nailed it about the intervention !!

 

Is someone gonna give us the real story with these, or what ???

 

"More from me about these tomorrow.

he says ...

 

Well... tomorrow is today, yesterday !!!

 

Soon...soon

 

"Tomorrow! Tomorrow! I'll love you, tomorrow! It's only a day away!"

 

And it gets even more ridiculous when PCGS grades it. Maybe state it's a 16 penny nail, but don't grade it as a coin.

 

Having worked at a private mint, I can see how all but one of them was made during the manufacturing process. They don't get out of the mint with product, but are culled out by employees.
I would sell some of the errors, unless they were struck from private dies. The potential damage that these can cause is much more costly than what they could sell for, so it was stupid and dangerous to try to make them on purpose.
