<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 905918, member: 66&quot;]No it is NOT a grease filled die.&nbsp; The letters on the edge of the coin are incuse and are created by RAISED letters on the edge die.&nbsp; To remove them so they don&#039;t create an impression in the coin you have to break them off.&nbsp; And he said that ALL of the other letters and stars are missing.&nbsp; It would be very unlikely that all the letters broke off the die.&nbsp; Something else must have happened that cause the coin to drop out of the lettering machine prematurely.&nbsp; It is not a really common error.&nbsp; Is it worth slabbing?&nbsp; Not in my opinion, but I feel that way about 95% of the stuff that gets slabbed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
