I picked up 2 rolls the other day, opened one had 6 upside down printing,And I must say the coins look a little ragged on one the 7 in 2007 is off center? other than that no other oddities, I sure hope they dont tarnish like the sac dollars.

Just was on the TV, ABC local news station: "Approx. 50,000 of the new George Washington gold dollars were minted "in error." NO LETTERING ON EDGE OF COIN. They escaped "the inspectors" watchful eye and were released in to circulation. The "error" dollars are now selling for about $40 a piece on Ebay." ................Rich

By now, everybody should have seen this, but just in case you didn't, here's the story...........

I love this...Chicago Ron just made a crapload of cash and he was just about the only one who did. Almost $700 coins are selling for $40. I'd hate to be the schlepp who bought that.
