    NO VALUE? Not meaning to state the obvious, but NO VALUE means NO VALUE. All error coins are selling for much more than NO VALUE at coin shows. From a person that attends 2 to 4 coin shows a month I would say all error coins DO HAVE VALUE. I've seen many, many coins much less doubled than that for $10 to $30 at coin shows. At a few coin shows in my area there are dealers that specialize in all types of error coins and NONE, I mean NONE are of NO VALUE. The market for error coins of every type is growing and there are many error coin collectors. Put that on ebay and just watch all the NO VALUES.
    Oh by the way did I see a statement saying HOW MUCH?

    No value also means "no market" for knowledgeable collectors.

    Because an error with such doubling is priced at $10 or $30 at a show,
    doesn't mean there are collectors/customers for them.

    Yes, worthless "errors" do bring some bucks on Ebay, but the buyers
    don't realize there is No Market/No Value for them when they go to sell
    them.

    If you like what you see, and are willing to pay the asking price, great.

    That doesn't mean

    1. It's an error
    2. It has any value
    3. It has a resale value

    I think the term "No Value" on these boards means there is are no buyers, either
    collectors or dealers, who are looking for these extremely common types of
    doubled coins.

    If you take a magnifying glass to almost ANY coin made, you'll find something
    "different" - but they still have "No Value"......

    Just trying to be helpful, so that folks don't go thinking everything described as
    having an error on it, is --- (see #1-#2-#3 above)
