What is Error?
Wavy steps on Lincoln Memorial
Refers to mint-made errors, describing coin striking malfunctions and misplacements. These errors can occur during planchet preparation, hub-and-die inaccuracies, and other general errors during the striking process. Numismatic value of faults is determined from the rarity of the error and the condition of the specimen.
