<p>[QUOTE="paddyman98, post: 3298856, member: 44615"]Ok.. This question has many answers. All of the questions we have tried to answer over the years here in CoinTalk. Some are simple such as you first must learn the Minting process of coins. Once you understand that then you can see how Mint Errors occur and cannot occur. I tell you this though.. I didn't learn overnight. Almost 34 years ago there were no websites or forums. I went to bookshops, read coin magazines and hung out at coin shops to learn about Mint Errors. I made many mistakes which actually taught me the differences between a true error and damage.</p><p>The next thing after learning the minting process is simply having some Common Sense! This is something many people lack! Many damaged coins are so obvious but some are to quick to label them Mint Errors..</p><p>Now we have we websites, forums such as this one, books and specialists that can help.</p><p>I say don't assume it's a Mint Error. First investigate. If you can't figure it out then call on the specialists.. And don't disagree or argue with them! We know our stuff![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
