  U.S. MINT ERRORS A MARKETING PLOT?
  

  Katie Jaeger writes: "The national press attention to the dramatic
  presidential dollar errors makes me wonder whether it wasn't the Mint
  public relations department who arranged for the appearance of these
  oddities. Maybe that extra corn leaf on the Wisconsin quarter was a
  test run for a new marketing idea?"
  

  [I wouldn't expect the government to have that much creativity, but I
  guess it's a possibility. If it was done on purpose, it sure was
  successful. But its usually much safer to bet on the government's dumb
  luck over forethought. -Editor]
