The only few I own are a low-number South Africa that's almost a "black" coin rather than brass and two of my 2005 silver personal coins that are missing one of the inked squares on the gc.com logo... 1 square on each is the coin face color.

I have a North Dakota that has raised metal diamonds on the snake instead of black enamel diamonds (there are other subtle differences as well, maybe this was a proof coin?)

Just an idea.  I'll start by showing one I just noticed tonight.  Look in the center, and his right eye is gone too  :unsure:

My Son of Cyclops coin has a section on the outer rim where it gets really thin... not nearly as thick as it should be. Luckily it doesn't really detract from anything, it's still a cool looking coin.

My coin error is not interesting, but rather infuriating! 

The coin painter has really done an unclean job!

 

Hey, that's the coin you traded me :lol:;);)

 

I have others that weren't painted well though - even an Ammo Can.

That's a typo. There is at least one other coin with that kind of problem (a personal coin).

 

I don't think this is the spirit of this thread though. :blink:

I contacted the minter of the coin and he sent me this to give you. He said to just print it out, cut it out, and glue it onto your coin and you will be all set. :D

I was handing out the Alabama coins to GBA coin club members the other night over a few beers and came across one coin holder that had two coins in it. Turns out that they both have the same tracking number printed on them.
