[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 3214540, member: 26302"]Well, you would know the story better than I. This is your pond sir. :) I was just trying to remember the story as best I remembered from a numismatic publication some years back. Btw, you might not be talking about errors in proof sets sir, but I am willing to wager there are still some in proof sets out there. Almost no one looks at them at shows or the ones in their closets. I remember a story maybe 10 years ago of a collector find 2 of the no S nickels at the same dealer at a show. Those kinds of errors are pretty obvious, (and well publicized).
