[QUOTE="squidboy, post: 1573545, member: 42073"]Thanks again everyone. Do they usually send back Grease/ Strike Thru errors for being too minor (for future reference)? What grease on die/ strike thru would pass as something worth authenticating (I'm guessing half the coin would have to be missing?) The whole grease/ strike through thing (Errors in general) is fascinating to me. I read a stat on Silver Eagle errors saying, "It is estimated that only .000003 of error coins ever make their way into circulation," so it's fun when something like this pops up. I'll let the auction stand then (good amount of watchers, few days to go, with a bit higher then spot is fine with me). If the winner wants to try to certify it, by all means. I was surprised to see it though on such an otherwise shiny mint looking-ish coin, and in the very least it perked my interest with coin collecting/ error searching for sure (something my God Father would probably be happy to hear).[/QUOTE]
