[QUOTE="DatDareNickelGuy, post: 6330419, member: 107243"][B]If you are not sure don't toss it back! [/B]I want to talk about something I feel is very important to any CRH. I have gotten private messages and comments on here regarding coins people have found and they don't realize what they have and toss it back. If you find something that appears to be a error or the coin looks off to you JUST KEEP IT! I have personally read threads where a bunch of so called "experts" will state the coin appears to be post mint damage. The person posting the coin in question would then dump the coin not realizing they have something huge. But I have read other threads where the individual just doesnt believe its PMD and decides to send it out to get looked at by a real well known numismatic error expert. The coin comes back a DDR or a DDO new discovery. I bring this up because I recently got a message about some coins a member on here found. He really didnt think nothing of it and tossed them back. I informed him what he described to me sounded like a DDR and to hold on to these next time. So now comes my turn. As you guys know I believe I found my first improperly annealed error. But I will not count it to the master list. Im just not 100% that it is a improperly annealed error. Even though all the attributes appear there. Im just not sure. That being said I will not throw it back into circulation. But it will be put into a roll with a "?" Symbol on it. I have about three full rolls of these. Over the years If I found something that was just to odd. Or im just not 100% sure. Then it gets put into a "?" Roll. [ATTACH=full]1250951[/ATTACH] [B]In conclusion [/B]Remember if you find something strange and you feel it is not PMD. Just keep it to the side. Now a lot of us on this forum are very educated in errors but this doesnt automatically qualify us as "experts". Always remember it's just going to cost you 5 cents to hold onto it.
