+ChileHead Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 One of my Vermont coins has very poorly aligned tracking numbers. I haven't seen this quite so bad on any of my other coins. The last 2 numbers are partially off the area. Just a fluke, or anybody else have this problem? (I edited out the last couple numbers so I don't get virtual finds on it.) Quote Link to comment
+slowdownracer Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 Hey ChileHead - Yes, mine is like that too, but I can still read the digits. Otherwise it is a nice coin, too bad something this dumb has to ruin it. I mean it's just not right. Quote Link to comment
+The Blind Acorn Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 I haven't figured out how this happens. Most coins I've ever seen are correct and out of 500 blind acorns, not a one is misprinted. It would be interesting to see the "production" line to see where this flaw occurs. =) The Vermont coin is a pretty coin though! Quote Link to comment

Since coins are round it difficult to get the coin aligned exactly. They do sometimes make a jig (so I've been told) to help, but it looks like they don't always get it right! Quote Link to comment
+Crowesfeat30 Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 I got two and the tracking numbers are perfectly aligned. Too bad you got some bad ones. CF30 Quote Link to comment
+WWC-World's Worst Cacher Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 I have 6 and the numbers are all fine. Maybe yours will be worth more. Like currency coins or baseball cards. Quote Link to comment
Jake - Team A.I. Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 Mine is slightly off kilter... but I didn't notice until I saw the title of this thread. Since the letters are completely within frame, I doubt anyone would ever notice mine unless the went looking for it specifically. Quote Link to comment
ATMouse Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 Just walked into the living room to look at the coin and the numbers are....are...they ummm...look at the way the stars are and the way the light dances off the cut waved edge... ...'scuse me, what were you saying? (Like Jake - Team A.I.'s - a bit tilted, but fine) Quote Link to comment
