<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LostDutchman, post: 621599, member: 16994&quot;]Intentional errors are something that all mints must combat. There is a famous story in the error collecting community about a few guys at the US mint that were making all sorts of intentional errors and then dropping them in the oilpans of the forklifts that they used at the mint. They had a friend who worked on the forklifts and he would retrieve the coins and then the pair (or group I cant remember) would clean them up and them sell them for big bucks. The mint got wise, busted the guys, and started putting a little screen in the place on the forklifts where the coins were being dropped in.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>This stuff does happen at mints... And from the source of the story I have no doubts that this is a legit piece.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I would also suspect that the same person made this piece as well. </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i39.tinypic.com/2djv4lu.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
