Hey guys in this large collection I came across quite a few off center and broadstruck wheat cents... It looks like someone got lucky with a few bags of cents


I was getting ready to 2x2 them... and I thought I would snap some pics as you don't see this many together every day

ya think?

Hey LD, I've never owned a error coin. Do you think you could save one or two for a contest/giveaway here at CP?

Thanks!

George

I'm hoping you'll put a few in the Selling forum here.

I am planning on it... I need to seal the deal with the owner of the collection first (pay em) but as soon as I do that I'll be offering several of these errors for sale

Those are REALLY cool!

I am prob going to be sending in most of these into NGC for grading... I will make sure to save a few raw ones for you folks!

I am going through a box of errors right now snapping some pictures.... here is a 1945 off center cent with a clipped planchet... it's a shame tho.... it got caught in a counting machine and was chewed up....

gonna snap some more pics now... stay tuned.

Good idea. Those look to be pretty high grade for errors.

Somewhat off-topic: Ever get those grades back on the 1909-VDB's?

I did.... one came back 64 and one came back 65

here is an 1968 cent on dime planchet... you can see the clad layers in the last picture

here are a few more for now.... I really like the %95 off center with a date and mint mark

WOW great coins LD.
I hope you secure a deal.

Those are truly awesome

Beautiful.

here is one more error of the box for tonight

Fantastic off-centers...were there any memorial dates?

there were a few.... nothing too special tho.

Whoa, neat catch!

Jeesh they just keep coming!!! Very nice!

I know others have said it, but once again ---- WOW!

Lots like that don't come for sale in my area of collecting, but they look really great.

I like the 1956-D 95% !!

On my Belgian errorcoins, I also look for full dates, even though the premiums are still the same for dated and undated errors over here.

Just being carefull, and they are just so much nicer when they are fully dated

Nice catch LD!

Do you guys check these for varieties? (coppercoins.com)

Jos

I do catch myself checking off centers for varieties. I did some research with chuck on the 2000 type II's and in my research one day I was checking for off center cents from 2000 that exhibited the proof (type II) reverses. I found quite a few funny enough.. (i think the grand total was near a dozen). I even found a 2000 double struck reverse die cap that had the type II reverse.

nice find i espcially like the one struck on a dime planchet and the 95% off stricks.

awesome coins
