Message:: [QUOTE="ErolGarip, post: 2803784, member: 88736"]I take your this ironic word as confession and I too join "we" and say "yes, ALL of us have been wrong, however, not for a few hundred years only, but, for tousands of years."... I'm going to make my these words clear. As "GDJSMP" said, among experts in numismatic, if there is no consensus as to what defines error, there is no "reference" coin, that's, there is no "errorless" coin to compare, to be able to say "this" coin is errorless and "that" coin is with error.. Maybe, we are looking at a wrong place on the coin. Lets look at these two coins in attached pictures (Delaware 1999 splitting horse coin and Sovereign coin). Ignore dates on them. I see a "same error" in both of them... In that sense, I take "spitting horse error" happily as it wakes one up about the existence of error, that is not done by the Sovereign coin which looks like perfect, errorless coin even though it Sovereign too has "same error" that Delaware 1999 coin and with many similar coins in the world have.[/QUOTE]
