<strong>Mint</strong> <strong>Error</strong> <strong>News</strong> Price Guide<br />
- Entire Price Guide Updated 12/1/09 -<br />
This price guide is brought to you by <strong>Mint</strong> <strong>Error</strong> <strong>News</strong>. It has been compiled by<br />
many of the top major mint error dealers.<br />
This price guide is a guide. Prices f luctuate due to the date, grade, eye appeal and how<br />
dramatic the striking error is. Rarity is also a factor. The price is sometimes based on<br />
the rarity and grade of the type of coin as well as how rare the error is. The price can<br />
also vary depending on whether two collectors are bidding for the same rare major<br />
mint error. When purchasing a mint error, it is important to use multiple resources to<br />
determine value, as there are many mint errors that do not fit into one category.<br />
Denomination Broadstrikes Die Trials<br />
Proof <strong>Error</strong>s<br />
Proof coins are struck by technicians who hand<br />
feed the blanks into special presses. They are<br />
produced, examined, and packaged using extreme<br />
quality control. It is very unusual to find major<br />
proof errors. A few broadstrikes, off-centers,<br />
double strikes in collars and off-metals have been<br />
known to be found in sealed proof sets. Proof<br />
errors are aggressively sought after by many error<br />
collectors.<br />
A very small group of Proof errors recently came<br />
from a collection that was auctioned by the State of<br />
California. The U.S. Secret Service inspected and<br />
released this collection to the State of California<br />
determining that it was legal to own. The State of<br />
California then auctioned the collection and it has<br />
been dispersed since the sale.<br />
