    Hi all,
    Just wanted to share my latest Mint Error acquisition
    It is a 1948 Argentina 5 Centavos with a 10% Off Center Strike
    This coin could of been also shown on the World Coin forum but since it's a Mint Error I chose to create it here. (I have been interested in foreign Errors lately)
    Enjoy :woot:

    I could not figure out what the image on the Reverse side was so I had to look up an image of the original coin.
    My first quick thought was a CUD but it is not.. Who can figure it out?
    Hint... it creates Cuds!

    Paddy, what is it with the grading services? Do they prefer to use whole numbers like 10, 20, 30, etc? This coin is more like 15% O/C.

    Doesn't Argentina have a lot of cattle ranches? I was thinking that it's a warning about "Mad Cow" disease.

    I don't think there is a right answer for that. Both companies are great. I also have PCGS attributed Mint Errors. I only have a membership with NGC but that does not mean I don't like PCGS.
    Here is one of my favorite PCGS slabbed and attributed Mint Errors -
