I am open to all opinions, observations, educated guesses, actualy having an answer or if you just want to say how amazing or ugly this is. Definitely Let me know if your as upset about the outcome as I am.

Thank you. Your honesty is most welcome here. I do hope that more folks comment. Really hoping to get some more feedback on what everyone thinks.

It’s a pleasure. There is always beauty where anything deviates from the norm. 

It is a beautiful design whatever “tears” are  on the coin

I would call that an ugly blemish, but I would never think that coin should go up in value or be labeled as a collectible mint error.  Of course this is just my opinion and I am in no way knowledgeable about grading or mint errors.  If I had received that coin from the mint, I would have returned it.

my first thought as well but then it grew on me and started looking like a bleeding eagle. thank you for your feedback, always refreshing hearing different opinions.

Mint QC failure. They should NOT have allowed that coin to be sent out. Personally, I would have asked for a replacement (if I received that coin).

I was going to return it, but then I started thinking how this is probably the only one like it. I’ve watched the minting process almost 100 times trying to figure out how on earth something like this could go overlooked. And it drove me crazy that NGC called it a minor mint error after they graded a minor mint error for me, (pics included of the other error. Was graded MS70 then I sent into NGC for a regrade)Thank you for your feed back. Always appreciated
