Awesome error I got in CHANGE!

Sweet. Could this be an earlier stage coin struck from the same obstructed die? http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=78444&whichpage=4#637866

AWESOME! Looks like struck-thru fabric....VERY COOL!!!

 

Awesome! I just got a Struck-through cloth penny at the show.

 

Ld it looks like a struck thru late stage die cap to me and mabe we could also say a small piece of cloth at the same time. I thought I heard someone say a few days ago a coin could not have two errors at once or something like that. This one kinda reminds me of my unusal cent coin. notice around the edge of your coin how smooth it is and the letters are about totally missing plus part of the date.struck thru cloth coins usually still shows all the details because the cloth is so soft.

 

nice find. I'll I get when I eat mexican food is a tummy ache.

 

Gonna have to stop paying with plastic/debit and go back to cash!

That's what I've been trying to do more and more! I scored an awesome 1956-D Wheatie in probably EF today that still has luster and some toning too!

To the OP: Awesome coin! That is too cool. I have yet to find a nice error, but I still have hope.

 

Matt

Great find!

Congrats, feels good, huh?

 

Awesome Find! Simply AWESOME!

 

Nice find I did want to ask if the error is not a mint generated error, at least I'm assuming it's not, would the coin still be worth more than face value? Otherwise what's to stop people from damaging/defacing coins? Just curious

 

If it happens at the mint, it's an error. If it happens outside the mint, it's damage (PMD- Post Mint Damage) and not an error.

 

Hi Matt,
Now I know why you paid for dinner when we met in Orlando. You wanted the change!
Thanks again by the way.
You lucky pup! Nice find.

 

This is why I never say "Keep the change"!

 

There are lots of fake homemade errors on the auction site. People get conned all the time and happily leave positive feedback. The buyers need to educate themselves about the minting process so they can tell the difference. This coin is clearly a real mint error.

 

my bro got handed 50c, but it was a 1966 50c which is 90% silver, lol. I'm talking australian currency here... worth about 5 bucks
