<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hommer, post: 2513543, member: 73266&quot;]To try and explain it could get complicated, after coins are struck, they, like most everything that is manufactured in this world,&nbsp; go through a quality control process where things that aren&#039;t up to snuff are rejected. What is or isn&#039;t considered unacceptable varies, sometimes with written guidelines, sometimes it&#039;s just the opinion of the quality control officer.&nbsp; Your coin, though it may seem to be an error to us, wasn&#039;t to the mint and they purposely released it for circulation.&nbsp; These types of errors,&nbsp; though some do collect them, are considered very common and have little or no value over the face value of the coin. All that being said, an error that is very collectable,&nbsp; would be one that under no circumstances should have left the mint, and should have been caught by quality control.&nbsp; These types of errors are not as common,&nbsp; making them more valuable to a collector. Google &#039;Types of US Mint Errors&#039; and you will find a wealth of information on what is rare and what is common.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
