Henri Charriere Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 For those partial to errors, I refer you to a recent (June 28, 2022) Coin World contribution by Bullion Shark, entitled: "Two Dramatic U.S. Mint Error Coins in the News," A sneak preview... very rare 15% off-center "Grand Snake" 1882-CC Morgan dollar.... NGC graded it, MS65, and placed it inside an oversized holder "while still in the [black] GSA holder." The second error coin is a 2000-D Sacagawea dollar obverse that was paired with a South Carolina quarter reverse graded and authenticated by PCGS (MS64)....the first time this [mule] error has been graded. (If you, gentle reader, are mechanically-inclined, and can provide the applicable link, I would be much obliged.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there ANY way the South Carolina / Sac mule could be anything other than completely intentional? In other words, criminal mischief at the Denver Mint?

Conder101 Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 It could be accidental, but the odds against it being accidental would be extremely high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWB Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Alignment keys on dollar dies are supposed to differ from those on quarter dies (or any other denomination.) As for the off-center dollar, excellent coin. Stupid nickname. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
