<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sideshow, post: 1179201, member: 30993&quot;]Hello everyone, I am new to this forum and I am fairly new to collecting coins. Anyways, I just got a 1999 Silver Eagle and immediately noticed this &quot;u&quot; shaped gouge on the reverse side over the word silver. However, the letters from the word silver are still present within the gouge so you can still see the word. I attached a pic of this. </p><p><br /></p><p>So the question here is, is the some kind of error at the mint or did something hit this coin at a really high rate of speed and impact? Me being an optimist would say its some kind of minting error. But I could be wrong does anyone have any input on this matter?</p><p>THX...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
