<p>[QUOTE="jallengomez, post: 864057, member: 19748"]These always seem to pop up here, especially lately, so I thought I would share this BU example which clearly shows that these "errors" are merely the result of post-mint damage. On the coin below you can see the remnants of where the I in LIBERTY used to be and you can also see the further damage and contact made with the field by the object that caused this damage. Both the remnants of the I and the damage to the field are so minor that with just a little bit of circulation they would quickly become invisible leaving people to wonder how the "I" got moved. Since this coin is still uncirculated the evidence is quite clear that the letter was moved via damage.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn311/jag68007/d1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn311/jag68007/d2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
