    OK, I don't know if this belongs here or in the error section...but since I was wondering what you guys thought the value was-I figured I'd post it here.

    I am not an error collector, but I wanted this coin because I really liked its appearance and it is my birth year...so I decided I wanted to add it to my collection. I probably payed more than I should have, but I wanted it.

    Anyway, it is a 1985-P Jefferson Nickel with an improperly annealed planchet. It is graded MS63 by NGC. What would the expected value of this coin be approximately. I have always been told that most errors like this are difficult to price-but I'm just looking for a ballpark guess.

    Also, could someone provide me with some information about this kind of error. I know the basics of how it occurs, but I was interested in a fairly specific explanation. Also, how common of an error is it?

    From what I know I think it is a very common error.

    I checked the the Minting Varieties and Errors guide by Alan Herbert and it lists an improperly annealed planchet as having no extra value.
