<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kristine, post: 2674287, member: 85925&quot;]Found this when I was googling no FG error...</p><p>&nbsp;the No &quot;FG&quot; error and it is actually an Error and not a Variety, is probably more common than most believe! All of the Master Hub Dies, Master Dies, Working Hub Dies and Working Dies contain the Designer&#039;s initials and if only one Lincoln Cent for a specific date and Mint has the Designer&#039;s initials, then all of the other Lincoln Cents for that specific date and Mint that do not have the Designer&#039;s initials are Error coins. Why that some are designated Varieties in the CherryPicker&#039;s Guide is beyond me and beyond most Collectors and Coin Experts as the reason that the Designer&#039;s initials are missing is due to grease or debris clogging the Dies or due to over-polishing, over-grinding or other abrasion to the Dies during repairs and therefore, none of these constitute a planned Die modification or change by the Mints which would make them a Variety.</p><p>While in the past, some of these Error coins and so-called Variety coins have sold for significant premiums, the prices they fetch and interest in them has dropped significantly as collectors and wanna-be collectors have wised up to what the coins actually are.....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
