<p>[QUOTE="Randy Abercrombie, post: 3608514, member: 92655"]Having had collecting set aside from about 1990 until several years back, the explosion of interest in mint errors has been surprising and intriguing to me. The image below (copied from Google images) is probably among the most recognized mint error. The US mint was diligent for years about not creating collector coins. Well all that has changed since the introduction of the state quarter series and they now offer collector coins quite routinely. If the mint were to offer an intentional dramatically doubled cent like the infamous 55 in a similar fashion as the release of the West Point cents, would that attract new collector interest? </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://proxy.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fcoinsite.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F1955-double-die-lincoln-cent.gif&f=1" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
