This is a new purchase. It's about 50% off center and includes the full date & mint mark. IMHO it has some nice eye appeal. (Is there anyone here that would not like this one in their collection)? Please post em if you got em.
Nice addition Dan. I hear tell that the off centers with the date and mint mark are more desirable. Sorry we missed you at FUN..........
Good for you Dan, If I were a collector, that would be a prime prize. I checked with my coin dealer out here in the Mojave desert and they don't even know what a junk box is. I guess they don't have much of an inventory.
This particular coin was not in a bargain bin or junk box. The dealer had it marked with what I thought was a fair price. I have several off center quarters so technically, it is a duplicate. (The coin was just so nice IMO). Here is a photo depicting a complete off center set of the same date and mint mark.
It is a standard holder from Capital Plastics. The holder has been modified with a dremmel tool. Here is a set of double struck coins in a similar set:
Those dremmel tools are awesome , I have all kinds of different attachments for mine. a person with a good dremmel and a little knowlege could build about anything. those off centers really look good displayed in the case.
I love collecting Kennedy Errors and this one just simply amazed me!!! Thanks for the pics Collect89!
Thanks for the coin complement. Do you only collect Kennedy errors or do you also like Franklin Half errors as well? Here is a proof 1961 Franklin with DDR and a 1954-D Franklin with a large obverse cud.
Can't post a picture or make a thread until the person has made 10 posts,although most of the time this happens it's a hit and run.
