While being new to collecting will excuse some ignorance, it doesn't help to put both feet in your mouth at the same time. Learn the minting process and you will readily see why you are getting the answers you are. The members here for a long time, with years and years of experience, are giving your their knowledgeable opinions for free. Take them or don't, but to tell them they are wrong without proof is just plain silly. Good luck to all new to CT. Do your homework, read and follow CT and you will come away with more knowledge and a better understanding of coins and collecting.
That is a struck thru error. Send it in and get it authenticated. My guess is it'll be in the $100 to $200 value range.

For those of you that doubt me... Google it.
