What You Need to Know About the Incomplete Planchet Error Or, Who took a bite outta my coin? By Jason Poe The world of error coins is often...
I would grade it XF details. If you hype it up properly on Ebay, there is no telling what it could go for. A reasonable value for it $75.
Thanks guys. I'm glad you like it. I always do these big long threads, and I'm nervous about whether or not anyone will enjoy them or find them...

Unstruck areas of a coin are incredibly easy to distinguish from struck areas. They will have pitting, and marks, similar in appearance to a...
