Don't sell it for $300. It is a $20 coin on a good day.
Such a fine example of an early Buffalo. (Indian Head nickel). They did make proofs that year for the 1916 Philly. Is this a proof? Otherwise I am...
Send the coin in for grading to a top tier company, and see what they say it is, when it comes back.
That would be 10 dollars each.
If you do enough research there are photos for everything. 1 site is not broad enough research. There are many other sources besides the internet.
I agree with ziggy. If there was some foreign material on the plate or paper during printing (which is not there now) that could leave this type...
Coins don't leave the mint that way. If they did there would be a whole new category of errors with photo examples. Super Dave writes: Those...
Without the scratches I think $150 is right. With the scratches, under $100. ($75-$90?) Cleaning it up can be risky if you are not an expert and...
With a mintage of just over 8000 pieces this is a rare coin. I am seeing $3450 in VF 20, as an F-12 perhaps $2500? I would keep it if I could as...
Is there some doubling on the bottom of that 1887 date, or is it a light reflection?
I don't even think this is a G-4. I think it's less. But as a hole filler I think someone would pay $10.
Yes the reverse did not leave the mint like that. Someone did that intentionally after it left the mint.
He isn't saying the OP's coin is not a 49-S. Paddy is showing a 1949 S over S repunched mint mark.
The greater the error the better chance for value. Since this error is very slight, I would say no, it's not worth anything.
The switch from coins to paper in paper out slots, I believe has more to do with the incredible amount of time saved, as well as incorrect...
Cleaned?
I've got one 1971-D. In fact I saw one or two others same year that were almost as far away as this. So I thought it was common for that year....
The error is really cool. And your error is damaging the note with that pen.
If silver goes to $30 there will be $10.85 in melt value. Even at $20 it's $7.23.
With the price of silver dropping, now is a good time to start picking things up. $6.50 is a good price, as it contains $5.76 in silver, and as a...
