Seriously, I've seen Goldseeker mention several times that he has benefitted greatly from reading the forum, taking notes and learning as he goes, so to speak.

And what trout said. :OK:

Yeah, what Trout said.

Without wishing to raise the whole variety/error/flaw debate again, you're basically looking for anything out of the ordinary. Which means things that went wrong with the dies, with the planchet, or with the interaction between the two, due to human or mechanical error.

So for example:
Die cracks, cuds being die damage.
Cold shuts, planchet splits, tears and other flaws.
Strikethroughs, fills, tilted, partial or missing collars.
...and a whole lot more. ;)

Post the pics, people will identify it. :angel:
