Bought a roll of Silver eagles and Found a Minting error 3 Attachment(s) Looks to be a "strike Through" error from the us mint. I purchased this roll for 295, when silver was in the 12's. I figured you people would find this interesting.

Re: Bought a roll of Silver eagles and Found a Minting error Have a few of those, called obverse strike error, had mine graded by NGC.

Re: Bought a roll of Silver eagles and Found a Minting error It is called burnishing. It is still the same color it just reflects the light differently.

Is the marring exactly the same on each coin... exactly the same as the coin pictured? If not, is the marring in the same general area of the coin? Inquiring minds...

Freedom1 means, "you people who run your mouths constantly". :D I, too, kid. I was just amazed that not only is this a 1st post but one made after a few months of lurking.

Re: Bought a roll of Silver eagles and Found a Minting error Thanks for the welcome. Been a short term lurker, so I figured I would post something of interest. No harm intended with the "You People" statement, I was just trying to be politically correct. May be "you Posters" should be more appropriate.

Re: Bought a roll of Silver eagles and Found a Minting error We need something besides P-diddy and Kate Moss to talk about or subjects tilted to get the gender/ethnic trolls on a roll. Thanks for the breath of fresh air. Speaking of fresh air, I'm getting out of this office and going home to walk my dog, looks like the rain has hid its face for the time being. When I get back, I wanna see some answers to my Q's. :)

No, mine came from different rolls, I have one with large strike around size of quarter.

Re: Bought a roll of Silver eagles and Found a Minting error How does this affect the coin's value? That's the real question.

Re: Bought a roll of Silver eagles and Found a Minting error I know of two that recently sold for $200

Re: Bought a roll of Silver eagles and Found a Minting error I see it, but I don't know what I'm looking at. Is it a different surface, or a different color, or a different metal, or some piece of trash that got in the way, what?

That ones worth way more. How often do you see lady liberty petting her hand on the shadow of a eagle sitting on a pedestool? At least thats what the strike error looks like to me... :-) You have a divine strike error there!!!! I wouldn't sell that one. Its a message from lady liberty herself.

l like class clowns, a good sense of humor is very much a prized asset, esp with some posters who are constantly up in everyone's koolaid, acting like they are walking around with shoes that pinch, and have a giant wedgie all the time... i too, have a twisted sense of humor, bring it on.. welcome, caveman

Re: Bought a roll of Silver eagles and Found a Minting error Fl57caveman and txkstew,,, Thanks for the welcome, I'm looking forward to talking to alot of people here. Maybe I will post on the general discusion side

Re: Bought a roll of Silver eagles and Found a Minting error Freedom1, You had it right to begin with. It's call a strike THROUGH error. It looks like a piece of foil or something was in between the die and the silver when it was struck. Since that portion did not touch the matte finished die, it remains somewhat shiny, retaining the original burnished surface of the planchet.

Nah. You are reading way too much into this Rorschach inkblot test. Lady Liberty is getting ready to "bitch slap" some politician (the strike through); maybe even hillary, Herself! :D The Great Ag

Freedom1 | 09-02-2008 04:32 PM
Re: Bought a roll of Silver eagles and Found a Minting error Now thats funny ,,, hillary? Maybe a cat fight. so would hillary be doing the slapping? This thread is getting to be hilarious. Its about time things get lightened up around here

Re: Bought a roll of Silver eagles and Found a Minting error Looking at the veneer they put on these things makes me glad I stayed away from SAE's, and continue buying SML's. The veneer is silver, but it is still veneer. Facades are the mark of crap... on anything. .
