I took it to a local dealer and he said the outer edge did not contain the copper and the zinc was exposed. He did not know if it was a mint error o if someone filed tdown, he thought it was an error. He thought the value would be around $4.00.
The other coin I showed him, he was very excited to see. He had not seen one yet. It was a territorial coin 1861 $5.00 Clark, Gruber. He indicated I should get it graded. Perhaps VG around for $2,000.
I inheritedthis from my grandfather.
