Ronald Reagan Missing Letter Edge Auctions for $3,881

Irvine, Calif. – On Sunday, January 20th, GreatCollections Online Auctions sold the recently discovered Ronald Reagan Presidential Dollar with Missing Edge Lettering. Graded PCGS MS65, this is the only known example of the error. The coin was sold to a winning bidder Sunday night for $3,881.

Since Presidential Dollars were first released in 2007, missing edge lettering has been discovered on most of the issues. In the later years though, the U.S. Mint was more successful in ensuring that all dollar coins leaving the Mint had their intended edge lettering.

The Ronald Reagan Presidential Dollar was the last in the 10-year series issued by the U.S. Mint in 2016.

Ian Russell, owner/president of GreatCollections said: “This coin was recently discovered by a coin dealer on the East Coast while searching through Mint sets and it was found in the Denver folder of the set. Since the mint mark is part of the inscription on the edge of the coin, without this information, we would not know where the coin was minted.”
