I'll be darned. They got one right. It ought to Bean, as well.
No sarcasm involved. I was like, "No way this is a serious thread - nobody actually thinks the packaging has "errors" worth talking about. Has to...
But....he calls them Pennies. :bigtears:
My first thought upon reading the title of the thread was, "Boy, this fella has some stones." :) Wasn't a chance I was going to miss it, though,...
You know the guy behind CAC was in on the founding of NGC (he was NGC's first President) and PCGS both, right? Been there, done that. :)
Ha! "After finally achieving the proper finish on the first mirror, I decided to increase the diameter of the reflector."
NGC is tough on FSB - they require well-developed verticals in addition to full horizontal bands - and I guess ANACS hews closer to that standard...
"Four legs good, two legs bad. " :P

Less than one-half of one percent of PCGS 1921-P's are PL/DMPL, and that's the most common of the three mints that year. There is, near as I can...
Curious coin. I'm guessing the "dark" I see in the fields is because the coin is PL or nearly so, right? I'd expect that "look" in digital imagery...
In my opinion the evidence is sufficient to consider it a genuine strikethrough. A postmint artifact would not be of such regular width...
This has me on an amusing line of thought - it can't be "counterfeiting" if you overstrike a real coin with that exact coin, just better.... :)
An additional possible factor might be the "typical" handling by the Mint in question, something NGC (for instance) knows that we might not. Could...
I already love this thread. :)
It's from @C-B-D (I'm sure he's wondering why I haven't posted it yet :) ).
