<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1884105, member: 66"]Polishing errors are common and as a rule are not worth a premium. Those few that do develop a following are due to hype and promotion, and more importantly if the company that makes the albums (Whitman, Dansco etc) put a hole for the coin in the album. If there was no hole for the 37 D three leg buffalo, or the 1922 no D cent, there would be very little demand and they would be just another curiosity. But since there IS a hole everyone feels they have to fill that hole so there is a lot of demand and high prices. Some people will say that the 22 No D would still be valuable because Philadelphia didn't make any cents that year. But Philadelphia didn't make any nickels in 1968, 69 or 70 and nickels for these years do exist with no mintmarks because of die polishing/filling and no one pays any attention to them. Put holes in the albums for the 68, 69, and 70 "P" nickels and I bet prices would explode.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
