Who wants to see my new 1799 Large Cent?

NOT

This is an 1797 double strike and the second strike caused this effect.
Should I crack it out of the PCGS holder and put it on ebay as a 1799? No way, us board members wouldn't do anything like that.

    Agent J,

    Forgive me for being ignorant about early copper, but would a 1799 in that grade be worth more than a double strike? I owned a PCgs fine 1799 and only got 12k for it last year.

    Are the scratches on the holder? Or is it a hairlined coin that PigCGS just looked the other way on. Oh, nice freaking coin iether way!!!

    a 1799 is worth MUCH more than this coin. The hairlines are on the holder as a matter of fact it's so scuffy I will have to get it reholdered someday.
