    I want to have some slabbed examples of errors to reference, so i started off with this not-so-little guy from eBay this week. 1998 1c Broadstruck. Since I don't expect to ever find one in circulation, i figured this would be a good place to start.

    Nice example of a broad strike -
    and larger than most.

    (I sort 'em into three/four diff. sizes)

    Nice Mint Error. I have examples of Broadstruck from Cent to a Kennedy Half attributed by NGC.
    I will show you them when I get home.

    About 75% of my collection I have purchased over the years. The rest I have submitted to NGC.

    I was not trying to be a comedian , This typo of your's was just too good to pass up. I think I remember you hitting me for a few of my typos . I'm almost sure I have seen you getting onto others for their typos. That broads truck one is the funniest one I have ever seen ... LOL
