Transitional <strong>Error</strong>s<br />
transitional error occurs when a coin is<br />
A struck on a planchet from a previous year<br />
with different metal composition. The most<br />
famous transitional is a 1943 copper cent struck<br />
on a 1942 copper blank. 1943 cents were struck in<br />
steel because of the copper shortage during World<br />
War II. Other famous transitionals include 1965<br />
coinage struck 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 />
