<p>[QUOTE=&quot;HandsomeToad, post: 671732, member: 12965&quot;]One of the things I&#039;ve noticed is there seems to be quite a few sellers on Ebay with error world coins and they don&#039;t have a clue what they are. Here&#039;s a perfect example:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/A-VERY-INTERESTING-1960-THREEPENCE-MINT-ERROR_W0QQitemZ310161023576" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/A-VERY-INTERESTING-1960-THREEPENCE-MINT-ERROR_W0QQitemZ310161023576" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/A-VERY-INTERESTING-1960-THREEPENCE-MINT-ERROR_W0QQitemZ310161023576</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Compare it to another one:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1956-ELIZABETH-II-THREEPENCE_W0QQitemZ270446412838" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1956-ELIZABETH-II-THREEPENCE_W0QQitemZ270446412838" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/1956-ELIZABETH-II-THREEPENCE_W0QQitemZ270446412838</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It&#039;s easy to see the first one is round, not 12 sided, so it was stamped on the wrong planchet and it a pretty serious error but the price is dirt cheap. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I tired to find someone (CT member) that collects English coins but I don&#039;t know who does so I sent it to someone who still hasn&#039;t gotten the PM and then I watched it go for peanuts.&nbsp; :goofer:&nbsp; So the errors are out there and some of them are serious errors and they can be had fairly cheap, if you know what to look for.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Ribbit&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
