I recently found this coin in a roll and immediatley sent it in for grading. I just recieved it today! This dollar coin has 2 mint errors on it. A partial collar, and Partial edge lettering! Im new to collecting and havent seen anything like this before. Any opinions or insight will be greatly appreciated!!!!
Pretty cool, Howard! Since the edge lettering is applied after the coin is struck, it's bound to happen sooner or later. However, the likelihood is rather slim. It very well could be a one-of-a-kind error for the Taylor $. Chris
Lets hope so! I have found many other Taylor partial edge lettering errors Im waiting to get graded. I just have no idea how to tell a ..partial collar? Id like to auction this coin off for money to get my other coins graded...but dont know how to sell it?
Here is a Sac/NA partial collar missing edge lettering on Fred Weinberg's site. http://www.fredweinberg.com/inventory/item.php?ID=6166 Chris
Wow Chris!! Very Very Nice!! ..Thanks a lot..I owe you 1. Now I just have to find a buyer! I may just sit on this coin..it might just be the find of my lifetime? The partial collar thing is still wierd to me? I found a couple of clipped pierces, and a darkened sinter Jackson the other day too. Thinking about going to the worlds fair of money this august in Boston. I should have no problems getting rid of this then..or trading. So why the Saq dollars? My bank tried to give me some saq rolls today and I refused and wanted the peirce rolls instead. Should I go back? lol
I explained it in your Introduction thread in post #4. http://www.cointalk.com/t117793/ On your Taylor $, I would imagine that Fred Weinberg will have a table at the Money Show in Boston. You might want to show it to him, but he might give you a low-ball estimate on value. Chris
