[QUOTE="iPen, post: 2319952, member: 69760"]Are there any examples of an error so suitable to the coin that it's on a level all its own, making it "the perfect" error coin? To clarify, I don't mean coins that are in the most perfect condition, or deep cameo proof errors, or the most expensive error coins ever sold. What I mean are coins with errors that suit it so well that its coincident error makes it both ultra appealing and magnitudes more rare than its "normal" error counterpart. One example would be a Franklin half dollar with a deep die crack that just so happens to land [I]exactly[/I] on the crack of the Liberty Bell. That, to me, is what I'd call "the perfect" error. It probably wouldn't even be referenced as an error anywhere either! Maybe one or two exist. But, it doesn't have to be [I]that[/I] rare and may instead be indirectly referencing a historic or social event - one [I]fictional[/I] example to illustrate the meaning would be a WWII year Peace Dollar with the word "Peace" grease filled (again, this would be a figurative example since a WWII era Peace dollar doesn't exist). Another more indirectly referenced example would be to have the 1952 "Super Bird" quarter error appear instead in the year 1933, the same year that Superman was first created. Are there any [I]actual[/I] examples of this so-called "perfect error" coin?[/QUOTE]
