Message:: [QUOTE="Conder101, post: 81308, member: 66"]Do not confuse strike doubling with double striking.  They are two totally different things. Your #3 and #6 are basicly the same thing.  A filled die is where part of the die has filled with dirt and grease.  #3 would be better as Strike Through (foreign object ie: lint, string, scrap etc)  It would still be a mint error. Your number 5 should be die crack.  A die break and a cud are the same thing and cud is covered under #17. 1-Doubled Dies--------------------------------die variety  Premium (amount varies)2-Strike Doubling (mechanical, Machine)----mint error  No premium3-Struck Throughs (foreign object)--------------mint error  Usually no premium4-Die Gouge/Scratch--------------------------die error  Usually no premium5-Die Crack------------------------------------die error  Usually no premium6-Filled Die------------------------------------mint error  Usually no premium7-Clipped planchet----------------------------Mint Error  Premium   amount varies8-Off Center-----------------------------------Mint Error  Premium amount varies9-Double Strike--------------------------------Mint Error  Premium10-Broadstrike--------------------------------Mint Error  Premium11-Double Denomination-----------------------Mint Error  DEFINITE Premium12-Lamination Error----------------------------mint Error  No Premium unless extreme13-Brockage------------------------------------Mint Error DEFINITE Premium14-Capped Die Strike---------------------------Mint Error  Premium15-RPM (Repunched Mint mark)---------------die variety  Maybe a premium16-Repunched Date----------------------------die variety  Maybe a premium17-Cud-----------------------------------------die error  Maybe Premium (varies)[/QUOTE]
