Why does this feel like an incarnation of KINGCOIN?

Mr. McNulty,

 

If you contribute here, then I am sure all will be forgiven. If not, then we'll just have to hope for the best...

 

BTW, the topic of the SQ die crack is all played out here. If you truly want to learn something new and constructive, I'm sure the forum members will be happy to help.

Welcome. What sort of error coins do you like? I'm partial to off-centers; cheap but neat looking. Mules are nice but can be expensive. And die cracks are a joke. You need a 20x loupe to see them most of the time.

Dave,

I like all types of errors. Multiple Struck, Cuds, Cracks, Mules, Clips and so on.

The number of ways the mint can mess up a coin and let it escape is mind boggling. The 'Error Coin Encyclopedia III' by Margolis and Weinberg is a great book for anyone interested in errors.

Dave,

I will be going out to buy that book soon. Thanks for the information.

I'll second that for a great book. It also has an excellent treatment of the modern minting process.
