[QUOTE="foundinrolls, post: 725861, member: 4350"]And a final finally for now:-) The dollar coins are not considered finished until the edge lettering is added. So they are little different in that the coin is struck.....post mint damage and bag marks can and do happen before the edge lettering is applied. That kind of damage is not an error as it is not a part of the mechanical process of minting the coin. So Coin is minted.... post mint damage can occur edge lettering is applied even to some coins that have been damaged and marked up coins are in big bins again and even more post mint damage can occur. It is only while the striking is taking place or the actual edge lettering is taking place (or not) that a Mint error is created. Anything else is damage, Thanks, Bill[/QUOTE]
