<p>[QUOTE=&quot;squidboy, post: 1573466, member: 42073&quot;]Hey all,</p><p><br /></p><p>New to the site and coins in general. Recently acquired a small collection from my Godfather&#039;s estate. I came across an interesting Silver Eagle. </p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s appears to be a 1989. At first glace I thought it had to be a really nice high grade (looked Mint to my amateur eyes) uncirculcated coin, but upon closer examination I found that the date was partially missing. Upon an even closer look it appears that the lower part of the sandal is also missing as well as most of the lower edge of the coin is just generally off.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Again, the coin relatively looks to be a high grade uncirculated coin, and it doesn&#039;t look like wear, but a minting error (but again I&#039;m clueless to most of this stuff). </p><p><br /></p><p>So I was wondering, what type of error is this. Would this be considered a clad error? It almost looks as if when being pressed, they might have pressed to hard.&nbsp; I&#039;ve included two photos, one using a diffused lighting filter, the other with flash. I&#039;ve been placing all the coins up for auction lately on eBay, but with the time going down I&#039;m hoping I didn&#039;t make an mistake by not getting this graded. After posting the coin up, I started looking for more information about the type of error and wasn&#039;t finding much, so now I&#039;m mildly concerned that I might have made a mistake by listing this as an ungraded. I might cancel the listing, and get it graded if it&#039;s worth the effort if it&#039;s rare or worth the added time and headache. </p><p><br /></p><p>Any info would be helpful. </p><p><br /></p><p>With Flash.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z220/squidboy1/IMG_4639.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>With Diffused Lighting Filter. </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z220/squidboy1/IMG_4623.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Regards,</p><p><br /></p><p>David H.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
