1992 close AM cent

**bullnuke** · 09-21-2009 11:07 PM

I have a 1992 close AM cent graded MS-62red by PCGS, and I was thinking of using Heritage auctions to sell it. I can find absolutely no data as to its worth (except 10k +)and have no idea what I should set the reserve at. I have never tried to do anything like this before. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

Would have posted pics but still trying to figure out photobucket

Where did you pick it up at?

As far as the auction, I'll let others chime in as I've not done that either.

Picked it up in a customer roll at my now very very favorite bank here in CT.

Wow. Just a point of clarification, Jello, you guys are talking about the '92? I'm saying, I just thought the '92-D had the close AM die variety, I didn't know the '92 did, too.

Yes there are 12-15 known 92Ds. Mostly found in the south near Alabama

This is one of only two 92s known and is the coin displayed in Sept 7 issue of Coin World. There was also an article this week by Ken Potter in Numismatic News?? (I think that is the correct name) for the same coin. Next week PCGS's Jaime Hernandez is doing a post grading article on the coin.

Great find. I'd wait to hear from those who know about this coin, before I'd try to sell it. It seems to be worth quite a bit of money to those who collect modern coin errors. Be patient and see what turns up.
