<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 2867009, member: 24633&quot;]No offense intended, Michele, but a lot of people who have caught the &quot;error coin bug&quot; tend to look too hard for something that isn&#039;t there. Sometimes they refuse to accept the explanations given to them by collectors who have been in the hobby for decades. In most cases, if these people made a concerted effort to learn more about the minting process, they would probably laugh real hard at themselves.</p><p><br /></p><p>Again, I am not implying that you are one of those people, but once you have been actively participating on these forums for a few years, you will understand what I mean.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>If you are referring to the marks on the right side of the obverse rim, they look like small hits to me.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t put much faith in the R-Factors that are used. They are almost always based on guesstimates. Not all errors are unique. Unique implies that the coin is a one-of-a-kind.</p><p><br /></p><p>I found the coin below in a Mint bag in 2004. There is only one other known to exist, but that doesn&#039;t mean there aren&#039;t others laying around in some hoard.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]684186[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>I hope this helps.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
