<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 610768, member: 66"]As a general rule an "error" is a coin that come about through a one time occurrence such as say an off-center strike. After it happened the press continues to turn out normal coins. Other examples of errors would be a strike through, what ever was in the way is removed and your back to normal coins every one of them the same as the one before. A double struck, a brockage, a wrong planchet, and so one. This means that every error coin is unique. It may be similar to another one but not the same.</p><p><br /></p><p>Examples of things often called errors which aren't are Doubled Dies (Every coin struck from that die will have the same doubling), clashed dies (every con struck after the clash will show the marks until they wear away or are polished off.), Over polished dies such as the 37-D three legged buffalo (every coin after the polishing will be missing that leg.) and die cracks show on every coin struck after they occur. They are merely things that can happen to the die as it goes through its life from a sharp new die until it is discarded as either a worn out or overly damaged die. Not errors.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
