Vise and vice are two different words. The OP coin is a textbook example of a vise job. Thread of the year.
It could just be wear. Or it could be because of a grease filled die. No extra value.
Current melt value is just under $20. (Like 19.98 or something).
That's an Ohio state quarter. Birthplace of aviation pioneers, not a moon landing quarter.
The Canadian Coin Price Guide shows the dot to be fairly centered. The OP coin the dot is off center. [ATTACH]
Sometimes the coin can be slightly underweight. (Struck on a slightly thinner planchet.) It has to be drastically under or over weight to have value.
Not a mule. If there is a quarter impression on this coin, someone stuck it in a vise, or, heated it together with the penny.
Here's my Colorado one. [ATTACH]
I imagine it's worth $1 or less. "Die clash values are minimal at best and are common enough that they add very little value to a coin."
It's around $100. You may get someone to go 101 or 102. Without the rip it's a maximum of $105. The rip kills it. The longer you hold it the value...
The copper plating is very shiny when new. All of those coins are worth 1 cent each.
Here is a photo from PCGS if you want to compare. The 8's on the OP coin are thicker than this photo. [ATTACH]
Not even worth the hernia lugging boxes of 2020 cents around. How much over $25 does the bank have to pay the coin service for a box?
IDK but I think 1234567 would be a more desirable SN.
AustinJ0324 (I realize this is 2 weeks ago) but that's a nice one. Use full image instead of thumbnail.
Supply and demand?
45 bad out of 4500= 99% good. It sold for $395 which is EF/AU price. If this was a proof coin, it can sell for $10,000. The sellers are not that...
What did it sell for last time? How long did the last owner hold it, and after auction percentage bites, how much profit was realized?
Pulled a few S quarters and they stand out because of that proof luster. 2 different 1972-S and sorry for the bad photo on Wisconsin. [ATTACH]...
If you try to clean it, it's almost 100% you are going to ruin it and the value.
Separate names with a comma.
