[QUOTE="Heather Robinson, post: 3796846, member: 107707"]Hello all, I have a coin that has an obvious error (please see photos), but there is a dispute as to whether or not it is a mint error. I took this coin to two separate coin/jewelry shops in my town and the first person believes it is a mint error due to the fact that you can see faint letters "ICA" in the damaged area where they should have been struck in the word "AMERICA" in back, as well as the "border line" (for lack of proper term) on the obverse side (I cannot remember the term the person used for this type of error, as I am very new to coin errors). However, the other person at a different store almost immediately identified it as a post mint error. The coin is also not perfectly circular, it sort of juts out at the error site. It is also not as thick at the error site. *I know the photos are not the best quality (taken on my phone) but any thoughts about this coin as you see it would be great. Thank you so much!
