Decimal Upsets

Certainly looks the goods. When I first heard about that one I added 2006 to my noodling special check list and must have looked at several thousand by now. I live in hope, but not high expectations, as another one does not ever seem to have been reported.

A second coin was claimed in the Facebook thread where I first saw this coin.

Yes there was another claim of finding one but somehow it was lost or spent by his daughter. My feeling is that it could be the same coin just found years later. I believe it to be a mint sport coin also.

"Mint sport coin"?

[trout]

"Mint sport coin"?

This is the term used for "Error" coins deliberately produced by the workers at a Mint.

Yes the 2007 double headed 5 cent is another good example of "mint sport" :dash1:
I seen your coin on FB PJ and didn't know what to make of it but now your a member here :winkextra:

[JeffH]

That's a new one for me. I will add it to my noodling 'must check' list. Hint to Nancy....maybe your list needs updating here.

[markn]

Thanks Guys, I've noticed on other members posts the photos are nice and big and mine are very small. Am I doing something wrong when uploading them?

[ausjack]

I use a site called tinypic's to post photo's but there's heaps of info in the Testing and How-To section.
