[QUOTE="fretboard, post: 830805, member: 19765"]I'm sure stuff happens at the mint that none of us will ever hear about. I will check out those two books though, good tip! With all the security nowadays, it would definitely be intimidating to work at the US mint, that's for sure. It may be best that we know very little about what goes on at the mint but I wonder if arrests and/or incident reports are public record there? I wonder if there will ever be another error as big as the 3-leg buffalo nickel? I find it interesting that few ppl are known who work at the US mint. Here we are, thousands of coin collectors and none of us know anyone who works there. Either that or we've been sworn to secrecy, or for whatever reason it's hush, hush. Oh well, I will keep my ears and eyes open cause I for one wish that more errors were released. [B]Hey you never know, maybe a US mint worker will read this and let a few more error coins slip thru the system just to reward us. :D [/B] Yeah, wouldn't that be something? :D Hey, a guy can dream.[/QUOTE]
