    I have heard that "getting rid of" thing for 50 years, still waiting.

    I know! They have all along. So does the Italics and Underline! As well as the Type Size and Font! But the dang Color doesn't! Why is it the only one out of the first six that doesn't work?

    You forgot to mention next to a fire hydrant that a dog just left.

    I'm old school. I prefer to use the definition cited by Alan Herbert in his book.
    OFFICIAL PRICE GUIDE TO MINT ERRORS.jpg
    In it, Mr. Herbert also identifies a "break on the rim" as a die break rather than a cud.

    If you want to say "to-mah-to", that's fine. I'll stick with my maters!

    I fail to even see the point of collecting them.

    All I collect is Lincoln cents but not past 1982. Zincolns are horrible coins. I’m with you Zincoln coins aren’t worth collecting regardless of any error or any variety that are attributed to them.

    Don't forget! They should be good for acrylic toilet seats. They might even sell for a premium if they are placed in such a way to spell out...

    S_IT HERE!

    Wouldn't they clog up the toilet bowl?

    Yes they will so no ashtrays or paperweight cubes in the bath room and you won’t have any clogging problems.

    It's all good, I like "to-mah-lees" to ;), (or something like that):rolleyes:.... I been doing this for a long time and still just learning which way is up. If this place gets too, well you know, then it'll be time for me to move on, but at this point, I kinda' like it here. Mr. Herbert, Mr. Whitman, Mr. Rogers, Mr. Big Bird....whatever, I'm just here to learn things like what you just taught me and use whatever I like to, as we all should. Thanks for your input and keep it come in'. Semper Fi

    Interesting thought. I'd say, because it's there, I suppose. Most humans are always looking for things with errors and the stinkin' Lincoln (as some call it), is one of the best for being messed up. Still you are right, they are very much a pain in the dariair (if I may be so descriptive).
