I have in hand 48 of these little beauties, not yet reported, not sure whether it’s worth reporting, but here they are; the VDB has been doubled. It’s not a camera trick, it’s really there, and YOU can find it. At the moment, nobody’s looking for these and quite frankly, it’s doubtful if anyone ever will, or that there will develop a market for this “error” which might be just a strike slip, no big deal. On the other hand, it will train your eye to See The Coin, and that’s what we’re after, so I’m offering the REAL DEAL — One Uncirculated Bright RED MS 64+ doubled VDB plus a roll of absolutely guaranteed “50 Sources” 2011 P pennies for your 10X loupe perusal.
You of course have my personal guarantee that these coins have not been searched, and that they come from fifty totally different source bank boxes of circulated coins. When I pick them, it’s strictly by date and mint-mark. I am completely indifferent toward these coins; they are not my coins, they are yours.
They therefore accordingly go unchecked into the collection “traps”. It’s not just a question of pure ethics. It’s for a very selfish reason — I want YOU to have these invaluable reference coins in your hands, so you can perform better searches and have great successes and I’m hoping that you’ll report your successes in the forum every chance you get!!!
Your success is my success!
There is no better way to learn to find a coin than to have a sample “target” coin right in your hand! Look at it under your 10x loupe. See what you have to do in order to spot this error. Now start searching the roll, knowing exactly where and how to look!
2011 P Lincoln Shield Doubled VDB DI-101 Search Kit — $35
1 2011 P Lincoln Shield Doubled VDB in flip with ID printed above.
plus 1 roll “50 Sources” 2011 P Lincoln Shield Cents in Vault Tube for examination.
Although these coins have not been searched or cherry-picked, they may or may not contain an error coin. This is of no consequence. The idea is to make a search roll of fifty chances to hit rather than wait for several weeks for this amount of coinage to collect itself from sorts and searches.
It’s about training the eye to see things that are almost not there.
It takes discipline, patience and style, and that’s what I like about it as a Sadhana, don’t you agree?
See You At The Top!!!
