I posted this one before in the 2x2 cardboard. Yesterday I borrowed a friend's scale so decided to take it out from its resting place for the last 30 years and weigh it.

    I would tend to agree.

    That was my first thought when I saw it. Neat error. Question for the error experts: Is this worth getting slabbed?

    Before I could scroll below the first photo thought it was going to be one of those love token dimes.

    Could I ask, where/how you acquired it?

    @OAKSTAR I got it from a coin dealer about 32 years ago along with a few other cool error coins.

    That is pretty cool!

    So, with two clad layers and a copper center, is that a 3.33c piece? :D

    Awesome piece. I would get it slabbed if it were mine.

    Imagine having a mated pair of the detached piece and the original coin it came from.

    I wouldn't spend $75 to get graded, maybe $25

    no way of determining year ... if you had the other part(s) then yes

  • johnny9434johnny9434 Posts: 28,633 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I kinda wish I had the other half of the error, just saying

    How cool would it be to have both halves in a PCGS two-coin slab? B)

    Even better🙂

    Good idea to get it slabbed... Protection for sure, authenticity for potential sale at some point. Cheers, RickO

    Well now. What do we have here😎
    Not only are you awesome at helping with our collection but it would seem you have some very cool things tucked away.
    Maybe anacs is a good choice for slabbing.
    We really like it and once again you pull a rabbit out of a hat 😉🙀🦫

    @Jzyskowski1 Theres more rabbits still in the hat. Some haven't been out of the hat for a long long time.

    Very cool error. I would slab it for the same reasons @ricko stated.

  • gumby1234gumby1234 Posts: 5,589 ✭✭✭✭✭

    @Zoins this thread for the clad layer only.

    Good to know!

    I have to ask, is there a "detached inner clad layer" too?
