Editor’s Note: A collector and part-time mint error dealer recently sold his collection. It included off-centers, brockages, die trials, uniface strikes, mules, two-tailed coins, die caps, double strikes, die cap mated pairs, several bonded coins, a coin struck on a feeder finger and several coins struck in gold instead of the intended metal. There were also canceled dies of world coins and other unique strikings from Mints around the world in this collection. This collection was separated and sold to several dealers. You might occasionally find a few of these being sold by dealers on eBay, in their price lists and at coin shows. Here is a selection of interesting items from this collection:
