<p>[QUOTE="dayriser, post: 882848, member: 21610"]Don't get me wrong... It is definitely a keeper, even for the error... I wasn't belittling your find by any means... Just over the time I have been searching coins, there are certain varieties and errors that I just don't look at anymore because I am more annoyed by the lack of quality in the minting process than anything... For instance, I don't even look at cents dated 1988 to 1991 anymore because there are just sooooo many weak strikes and weird PMD coins... Even the best quality from those years are poor excuses for coins imo... The pres dollars, I kinda feel the same way... I went through hundreds of dollars a week for awhile and began to realize that I was getting a lot of the types of errors you describe... Initially, I kept them, but then began to get frustrated with the weakly struck edge-lettering, and the 'anomaly' letters showing up on the edges, and like you I was having difficulty even finding info on them, because people seemingly had begun to write them off as too common and not very interesting... </p><p> </p><p>I agree 100% though, that the joy is in the hunt for keepers...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
