    There is a galaxy of nuance which can be completely missed if one does not pay attention to the little, unimportant things like the placement of apostrophes and commas or the difference between Your, You're and Yore; Their, There and They're, etc.
    I willingly run the risk of being perceived as a crackpot old man yelling angrily at clouds by occasionally pointing out that with a little bit of attention to "unimportant" details like spelling, punctuation, syntax and grammar, the message would be a lot more clear, specific and better understood, overall.
    Try thinking about this with some of the same sort of attention to detail one pays to the tiny differences which define a mint error of one class or another.
    The devil's in the details, after all.

    WOW. I'm late for this party, but for a new member to generate 5 pages to their posts is quite the accomplishment. @Melcha11, I'd like to ask what you saw on your 1944 cent that caused you to believe there was an error, @SCS2019 asked the question inn post 62, but it never received an answer. Oh, and welcome to the neighborhood.

    agreed - grandpa used to say: 'throw me down the stairs my hat' and there's a big difference between 'it's time to eat, grandma' and 'it's time to eat grandma' - fortunately(?), all of my grandparents died of natural causes :rolleyes:

    It's okay hun don't feel too bad I had only posted once like your post and got immediately mean and rude comments so I went and found another site where I wasn't criticized for my lack of knowledge when that was my main intent of joining this one.

    The shadow of course, than the year. I am still researching and learning when and if I have free time, because regardless of comments, I am a very busy woman. Thank you for the encouragement.
    I'm a mom though and it takes more than some internet words to scare me or discourage me. This whole thread is funny to me. I may start another one with a intentionally dumb question asked! Hahaha, I'll let you in on it.

    I did not start that whole spelling grammar deal! I "shot" back at the one who seemed to see irrelevancy humor in a typing error. Eat, -laugh-, shoot, leave because I don't have free time to reply to alll this other ignorance (keeping my own in mind ) all at one time. Besides, it still keeps coming every day. Let's not make me "coin talk internet famous" here! I keep getting notifications on this! I'm over it.
