    Neat error. What's something like this worth?

    Well, I think it's about $5,000!

    I also think it look's like possibly a 1974 or later coin but closer and sharper image's would be better.
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    "ok, Is this a Quarter or a Dollar?"
    -----
    In the old days, it would have been a quarter's worth
    of silver.

    Now it's a nickel's worth of nickel.

    As an off-metal/wrong planchet error and if authentic, somehow I think not.

    Not off metal since both the quarter and Ike dollar are copper nickel clad---it's off planchet. Agree it's worth more than $400.

  • ConstantineConstantine Posts: 2,369 ✭✭✭
    Uh yeah.....I would buy that all day at $400. Those are too far and between as well as dramatic to be under a grand in my opinion.

    Neither. Legally, it's not a coin since there're no denomination, country or other legally required inscriptions.

    Thank's Lee for the site.Looks like I was waaaay off.Next time before I post
    I will do a little homework.

    Here's a more recent example @ $8,625. Struck on a Philpine Piso seems a little more available and the half dollar prices are all over the place depending upon grade.


    I;m getting curious about the OP now.

    Are you going to give some more information about this coin or not?

    Is it your's?

    If so, how did you acquire it? How much did you pay? Were you aware of its value when you acquired it?

    If it isn't yours, whose is it?

    An error coin like this needs no hype PerryHall. You know that.

    It's just that this appeared out of nowhere with no explanation surrounding it all and I'm curious.

    I'll never understand how they grade these since the coin is obviously not a full strike! image

    BTW, Congrats as that is one sweet error coin!

    Don't you just love it when the US Mint REALLY screws one up?
