Transitional <strong>Error</strong>s<br />
transitional error occurs when a coin is struck<br />
A on a planchet from a previous year with different<br />
metal composition. The most famous transitional<br />
is a 1943 copper cent struck on a 1942 copper<br />
blank. 1943 cents were struck in steel because<br />
of the copper shortage during World War II. Other<br />
famous transitionals include 1965 coinage struck<br />
in silver instead of clad.<br />
There are also transitionals struck on blanks for<br />
the next year. An example is 1964 coinage in clad<br />
instead of silver. Most recently, transitionals were<br />
discovered involving the SBA and Sacagawea<br />
Dollars of 1999 and 2000. There are eight known<br />
1999 SBA Dollars struck on the brass planchet for<br />
the 2000 Sacagawea Dollar, and four known 2000<br />
Sacagawea Dollars struck on a clad planchet for<br />
the 1999 SBA Dollar.<br />
