Hi

Is there a plan to integrate some kind of an extra field in the window "Add to my collection" and "Edit items in my collection", where user can tick "YES/NO" or "TRUE/FALSE" on whether a coin entered is a coin with error? This would be for personal use only and not published for all to see, and so does not affect the number of different "official issues" within a coin page.

If this is implemented, there is a logical follow-up with displaying the list of coins with errors within the collection on "My coins" page. A personal picture could be in this case used (if available) instead of the one from public profile.

Some of us users here also try to lay hands on such official mistakes...

That's not a bad idea. What I've seen people do to get around this is actually just create a new collection called "error coins" and put what the error is in the "additional comments" section when you add a coin to your collection. This way you can view all your coins, just your error coins, etc.
It can be also useful if anyone want to find coins with errors available for swap in case such filter may be implemented
