You have done real good with the Error coins and the note! I quit saving the "BIE" Errors, small Die Chips and Lamination/De-Lamination Errors unless they are significant as there are so many of them and they accumulate fast. I have better luck with selling significant Errors, Doubled Dies and other Varieties such as VAMs to Coin Experts/Dealers such as Larry Briggs and if I have something very noteworthy/significant, I am sure that Bill Fivaz would likely buy it.

thanks, Frank. I like the thrill of finding stuff others may want to collect. did sell a coin to Fred Weinberg a while back-- super nice Jeff CUD. an error given to a kid by dad may keep the kid off the street & gittin' rich :dontknow:

----back to slicin' open more rolls of fiddys, dimes, nics & cents :laughing7:

What are we looking at here. What is a BIE or a Peeling Lam?

enamel7 · Dec 27, 2016

BIE is a die chip between the b and e of liberty. A delamination is a peeling of top layer on a copper cent due to poor mixing of metals when copper sheet was made.
