<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jay4202472000, post: 2319208, member: 42573&quot;]Yes it has.&nbsp; I took a break from the forum a few months ago because of threads like this.&nbsp; Constant arguments, coin denomination bias, post a real variety and get a like or two, but post a coin that&#039;s been put through the wood chipper and get 25 pages, members that think way to highly of themselves, the list goes on and on.</p><p><br /></p><p>I decided to show back up a couple of days ago because a cherrypicked a BU 1961 type B reverse quarter.&nbsp; Within a couple of posts, a member pointed it out to me that I shouldn&#039;t have posted it here because it wasn&#039;t an error coin, it was a die variety.&nbsp; I knew this.&nbsp; It&#039;s actually a reverse design variety (RDV-002 per CONECA).</p><p><br /></p><p>Let me state that I have ZERO hard feelings toward this member as we talked privately and I honestly believe he was trying to educate other members about the variety.&nbsp; Seems like a very good guy!&nbsp; But still members here seem to have to prove they are smarter than you.&nbsp; Especially if you are talking about Lincolns.&nbsp; There are a few that seem to hate them and all the minor die varieties associated.</p><p><br /></p><p>That being said, this coin weighs 85.5% of normal weight.&nbsp; I understand you are untitled to your opinion, but there is a table on mint tolerances somewhere.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know the exact number, but I know beyond a shadow of a doubt it&#039;s not +/- 15%!&nbsp; I guarantee you if someone found a Morgan that weighed 22.86g vs 26.73g it would be the greatest find ever...but it isn&#039;t.&nbsp; It&#039;s that crappy little Lincoln cent!&nbsp; This forum used to educate people, not give half-assed, 100% inaccurate opinions.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ll say it again, this used to be my favorite forum.&nbsp; Not anymore.&nbsp; So, there&#039;s no need to reply to me as I won&#039;t see it.</p><p><br /></p><p>To all the truly helpful people that I&#039;ve learned so much from, I&#039;d like to thank you kindly!</p><p><br /></p><p>Most importantly, to numis rookie, I&#039;d like to say NICE FIND!&nbsp; I&#039;ve searched over 100,000 cents and my best is a 1941 weighing 2.69g.&nbsp; It&#039;s in a 2x2 labeled &quot;rolled thin planchet&quot;.&nbsp; Happy searching all!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
