2009 S proof errors found
sorry to post this all over coin network.But I'm hoping for a response on these errors I found in the 2009 S proof sets I bought.One is a Tyler struck through and frosted reverse error.The other is a Taylor struck through wire or thread.The others are the Puerto Rico over polished reverse die error.I don't think I can be the only one who found the Puerto Rico errors.Because they are all identical and in all ten sets.I posted some pictures of all the errors so you can give me your input on them.I am selling them all on ebay because I bought the sets mainly for the proof pennies.I'm accepting best offers on them and really would love to get some input on values.You can find them on ebay under key word (proof errors)

Hey Lee,
It is clear that you are a very bitter person toward the mint.It is also clear that you are a pessimist.So please keep your negative comments to yourself.It is also clear that pessimism and Lee Grant are synonymous.Perhaps a spell check on your errors should be used before dogging anyone else out.Synonymous not synonomous.I'm glad your not looking for errors for me.

Lee Grant said:I am a pretty good speller but I am a lousy typist. I have no bone to pick with the mint. I have a lot of beautiful proof coins from the Mint. But I do have a thing with the Director of the Mint. When I look at the great coins I got from the Mint in 2006 and 2007 and most of 2008 and then compare them to the scratched up tarnished coins sent to me as proofs in 2009, I don't believe I am a pessimist. I believe I am a realist. And your comment is about as cheap a shot I have ever seen on this site.
I don't know you Mr. Grant but I agree with every point you make except the part about Mr. Moy but only because I have not educated myself sufficiently to agree or disagree. Mr. Coinomologist didn't get the responses he hoped for first time around so he posted again and attacks the first reply received in a manner that lowers his chances of getting any replies at all. I thought you made a couple of valid and accurate points in your first reply.
Cheers,
Bill

I really don't like to waste time talking with people like you.It really gets nowhere with the original question I asked.So please keep your comments to yourself and leave my discussion alone.This is a discussion.Not an argument.Your dismay toward the US Mint is noted.So unless you have a theory on how these errors happened other then to call it junk.Please stay as far away from me as possible.Because I would call your comment an extremely cheap shot.I have looked at your comments in other places and noticed your pattern.So please just go away.

What ever floats your boat Bill.Noticing that Lee Grant clearly admits to being a novice coin collector.I took his comments very seriously.LOL.Sounds like your on the same boat.So Why don't both of you just sail away and dog someone else.

It's plain and simple.The market has dropped severely and Everyone is angry now.So As I stopped coming to the social networks about a year ago.I will do the same again.Goodbye and enjoy sharing your anger with others as I do not choose to do that.Goodbye to all
Lee Grant said:I was going to end any further discussion on this item; however Coinomolgist makes that impossible. First of all I have no idea where he is coming from. At first I thought perhaps he thought my comment on "error definition" might adversely affect the profits he thought he was going to realize on his defective coin sets. But then when he tore out after Indentured Servant, I thought otherwise. He attempts to degrade every person on every point.
Yes, I may be a novice coin collector; but if I weren't, I would probably be a lot angrier at the Mint's proof products than I am. As a novice I see with the naked eye the gouge in my silver proof Abe Lincoln's chin. I see the black tarnish on the shoulder of George Wasington, a part of my silver proof Mint Set. What if I was looking at these coins with a ten power loop; or as one of the members spoke of a 100 power magnification under intense lighting? How much happier would this novice be?
If all of this was something that occasionally occurred, then I should just accept it as an imperfect item and return it to the Mint. But as with the UHR and its "fins" I kept it because from the complaints I had read about the quality of the coins, the chances were pretty high that I would get something worse and probably have to wait months before I got it. Yes, some of us are novices, and some of us are unhappy with the cancellation of the American Eagle coins for no other reason than incompetence and this tends to promote your definition of pessimism in a few of us. When all of these problems occurred with the arrivaI of Moy at the Mint, statistics 101 says, I think we have a correlation here.
I am sure you will not waste your time on the unworthy, so let's end it.

At least your argument is Coin Related.......I dont bother with Error Coins.....but i do see there is some passion out there for them!!
I would also like to add that i am not angry with the cancellation of the American Eagle coins....just a little disappointed!
Hopefully you guys can just agree to disagree!! I think this site is GREAT and can be very informative!! I hate to see anyone with information on any coins walk away!!! That is whats nice about this place....everyone has opinions!! As long as its coin related i love to here them!
Thanks
