Here's a possible third "error". It just looks like bag marks but the owner claims he got it from a roll and the entire roll has the same...
My sister in Colorado sent me one from the Denver Mint last week.
Apparently just going to the bank won't be a guarantee that you actually get some.
The Mint must be working the dies to death. There are already at least two errors that have showed up on the 2009 Cent. Die crack on the...
I get your point but you are missing what I asked. I'm simply asking how that final sale usually takes place, not the journey it took to get there.
As noted in the linked article the error was only in the proof package. This would make it hard to even see the error. Most people looking for...
If you took one close and the other from further back then the settings weren't the same.

I'll have to take your word for that but it doesn't answer the question of final sale and delivery to a customer. Obviously dealers can't exist...
Melt clad coins? Won't happen.
With a total series mintage of around one billion I don't think that time will come any time soon.
Actually he probably never did say that. Relating to money, as we do here, he did say, "Every crowd has a silver lining." and “Money is a...
That's actually part of the coin surface. Either the track or the wheel that ran over it had a few pits which became bumps on the coin.
Ok, I can see buying one copy for basic reference, but what value is the entire series?
Separate names with a comma.
