ROFPMSL,have NO idea if this is an error or not .
I got a laugh out of this ad at least.
Wow! One bid at 50¢ (plus $8.25 postage!). He will make a tidy profit anyway.
I say PMD -the too much time and access to tools syndrome.
Hi Jeff, Yeah i should have worded my post better,i know it's not an error, this ( have NO idea if this is an error or not ) is from their listing.

My thoughts exactly. Its actually not a bad bit of butchering.. much better than most of this type of thing I've come across. But as for bidding on it.. ROFL!
Zero feedback seller as well.

That was my first reaction too. But on closer examination, It looks like it just might be a planchet fault. A wierd one, admittedly.
Look at the sharp edges and rough bottom of the missing bits. Then look at the intact detail surrounding them, such as the top of the ear on the X. No signs of tool marks, and being pressed in a vise wouldn't look like that.
Not saying its legit, but I'm not ruling it out just yet.
Hrm... while looking at that 1/2d, I noticed a $72 cold shut 50¢... just
HAD to look, and I'm stunned by the prices this guy is asking for all his errors and flaws:

Wonder if he ever actually finds any
bunnies buyers? :dodgy:
I actually bought this coin http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/1972-10cent-Error-Coin-Damaged-Rim-/231179405220?pt=AU_Coins2&hash=item35d35dc7a4 & when i got it i sent the seller a very polite message tell him it was not an error coin but PMD imo so he said send it back for a refund & thanks for the info.
He still has it listed as an error though.
