    In my view, this coin is doubled date; digit eight is very visible, doubled ear, and in reverse, in 'PLURIBUS' the B is struck on D. I heard about this story before! Can you experts help me to discover my treasure for Xmass spendings pls?

    I think you will have to do your Xmas shopping at Dollar General.

    Yes, I am looking at that kind of sites, but those are just sites not facts. For proof, I have another coin with the exact same problems. What is that? Hand made, man-made, or what?

    I do not know what is that. Apparently, you are an "EXPERT" in that!

    Sites such as those are the directories of errors and varieties which have been verified by experts and listed as known examples of their type. How much more "factual" do you need?

    You mentioned "as known examples", what about unknown examples. I read some of that sites saying there could be new discoveries by collectors then will be evaluated.

    Looks like it was minted from a worn die and then circulated a lot.

    Of course, anyone is entitled to send their coin in for attribution. Pay your money and see what they say. However, when the consensus of opinion here is worn dies and circulation wear, you would be wasting your money, IMO

    I don't have to be an expert to recognize that you won't be able to afford a Xmas gift based on the value of that coin.

    I'm in for late die state and heavy circulation.

    Paisan, you’re letting your imagination, due to your lack of experience, get the better of you. Santa will come down your chimney before you get more than a cent got that coin.
