Good afternoon! I picked this half dollar up for silver weight cost as the seller told me it was damaged. I think it is an error. What do you think?
Great! The coin shops around me are way, way overpriced, but I am having a lot of fun at "We buy silver" places. I am amazed at what I have found so far. Thank you for your help.
You definitely have an error and called it with the correct name. Nice pickup. It’s an incomplete planchet. You have a curved clip. This is how they are formed. Not trying to one up you but I just want you to have a better understanding of how this happens. He’s mine. It’s also on the above diagram. When the sheet roll doesn’t advance properly that’s when these type of errors occur. Congratulations on your find.
