I won this coin for $5 is it a solid ERROR 1959 Franklin

I won this coin from an auction company on Auctioneer.com. I won it back on July 20th 2013. I just got a disturbing email that my paperwork was lost, so I cannot get my coin. It's not right and I will continue to fight the fight.

I see on the reverse bell the crack looks off, has anyone ever seen anything like this?

Second issue, the rim is not sealed correctly.
What error would you call this coin?

BTW. I do also think it's a Double Die reverse E Plub Unim circle at 9pm.

I can't tell anything from those pics, Slderguy. Peter gives us the option of posting larger photos and we should all take advantage of it.......

 

I'm with Green. The photos are to small to be of any use.

 

When I first saw you won it for $5 I thought, I have to register at that website then I saw the part about them losing your paper work and not sending you the coin. That's not right!

waiting for pictures

 

This is the website photo's, sorry this is all I have. Many someone with more gusto can large them for us. G


Also, the other coin was In the auction and I will not be getting that one either. So, $5 each was a deal and I thought the 1959 had some error issues. TY

 

A lot of paper work goes missing when things don't make it to melt value.

 

Isn't that the truth. Bad thing that leaves the nasty bitter taste in my mouth, this guy that owns his own auction house in Ft. Myers Florida sends me a email telling me about him losing my invoice/coins and then asks me if I would send him the type of payment I used.

I did that about 8 days ago and now after 4 more emails to him, No refund.

I guess I need paybullypal to recoup my losses. I wonder if I can write off my damn time and loss of value/silver spot price on this one.

 

Not enough pixels to make it worth while. I tried..........

 

For what its worth, I'd bet the bell issue is a lamination error. Also, it looks like at least the type 2 reverse, and possibly the type 1/type 2 DDR. That would account for the doubling in EPU. Take a very close look at the dot to the left of the "E". That dot did not line up well on the two reverse dies, and so it shows doubling nicely.

 

I know of only one coin dealer in Ft. Myers who conducts his own auctions (out of his B&M.) I won't mention his name or the name of the company, but from personal experience, I wouldn't recommend him to anyone.

So I don't beeitch too much, if my coin I will not never receive, at vf grade what would a coin like this be worth.
