<p>[QUOTE="sideshow, post: 1179201, member: 30993"]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 "u" 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>
