<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Blasty, post: 8182520, member: 38375&quot;]I&#039;m not big on errors - I have a few and do look for them in my change. But I see a couple reasons to like them:</p><p><br /></p><p>1. They bring specific parts of the minting process to attention that are normally taken for granted when one looks at a completed coin. Focus shifts a lot more from &quot;what is this coin&quot; and &quot;how nice is this coin,&quot;, to &quot;how was this coin made?&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>2. The government wants to appear infallible and will never admit a mistake. I had a Denver Mint employee flat out tell me, &quot;we don&#039;t make errors here&quot; when I took the tour in 2000*. Well, we can hold physical proof to the contrary!</p><p><br /></p><p>#2 not so much as #1, but the thought crossed my mind and given me a tiny bit of satisfaction.</p><p><br /></p><p>*All of the error coins in my possession at the time were from Denver.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
