Message:: [QUOTE="clembo, post: 269152, member: 8033"]If there are 25,000 out there (and I don't know any better than you do) the VAST majority will be uncirculated due to the current hype. Legit ones wil be slabbed by TPGs like PCGS. Can you see the edge of a coin in these slabs? Anyone that has ever seen a 1955 Double Die Lincoln in person can see that it's a really cool error. Once again can you see the edge of slabbed dollar? It seems there are going to be a lot of errors in the Presidential series and we still have quite a few to go. Betting we continue to see "errors" in the future. The only thing the "atheist" dollar has going for it is that it was the first "error". I wouldn't sink my money into these as it were. Hell, I'll only spend a buck for one right now. Think about it - what helped fuel this craze. Oh yeah, the media. How often do you really see coin related stories in the media. Like next to never. The mint is pushing the dollars and the media is buying into it. When this error was first discovered I had people mention it to me lke they were suddenly coin experts. You know none of them mentioned any REAL coins as those would actually take knowledge of the hobby, history and a sliver more than a few brain cells. Media reported it so it must be true. 10 years down the road. Maybe $100 on the CoinVault where the uninformed buy garbage.[/QUOTE]
