The History of Error Coins
From Minting Mistakes to Modern Collectibles.The Stories, Types, and Value of America’s Most Fascinating Coin Errors
What happens when a coin does not turn out exactly as the Mint intended?
Some of these unusual coins become fascinating pieces of American numismatic history. The History of Error Coins takes readers on an engaging journey into the world of minting mistakes, rare varieties, famous discoveries, and the collectors who learned to recognize their significance.
This book explains how coins are manufactured and where errors can occur, from planchet preparation and die production to the striking process. Readers will discover the major categories of error coins, including clipped planchets, wrong-planchet errors, doubled dies, die breaks, off-center strikes, broadstrikes, brockages, struck-through errors, and other unusual minting abnormalities.
The book also explores some of the most famous and historically significant U.S. examples, including the 1943 bronze cent, 1955 doubled die cent, 1969-S doubled die cent, 1972 doubled die cent, 1982-D small-date bronze cent, and 1999 Wide AM cent.
Beyond identification, readers will learn how to examine, photograph, measure, research, authenticate, grade, and evaluate suspected error coins. Special attention is given to distinguishing genuine mint errors from scratches, dents, corrosion, environmental damage, altered coins, and other post-mint problems.
Whether you are discovering unusual coins in pocket change, searching rolls, building a specialized collection, or simply curious about the stories hidden in American coinage, this book provides a practical foundation for understanding the fascinating world of error coins.
