How cool if a copper '43 was in the middle? I'd open it, even a few high grade uncirculated would be nice.
You think those coin dealers would have recognized the coin if authentic, it's a legendary error if copper 1943. So check with a magnet then...
Somebody might want to see a picture.
We have some bad news for you. Unless this a pattern, the first minting of FEs was 1856, all proofs. 1857 they started minting business strikes,...
Nope. Is it almost as fast to google the coin date and mint mark? There are also charts and price guides to help determine scarcer dates. Overall...

Maybe heated to high temperature?
Thank you for a most interesting and informing post.
Nice specimens, I'm a fool for the '43s.
Humbly, details coin, $45. Gorsh I hate being the first guesser with so many wiser.
I remember one called "ZOTZ" from early sixties, we got a free coin like the one that was featured in the movie, a "magical" ancient discovery.
So cool, oh so cool.
I've been reading your posts and you ask the right questions and you have great style! Good luck, I'm sure you will do well.
What did you find when you searched this date and condition on the internet? Do you have books/magazines that indicate trends and values? What do...
I hate this. My opinion face value + 10% maybe.
Since condition is a very important factor, photos of the highest detail will help determine your coin's value. Welcome and keep asking questions.
What hole? Stick a pointer or something, I don't see it. Thanks
Hard to see, looks like damage, post mint.
Redbook lists a IHC clipped planchet of 10% - 25% of the coin at $15. But yours is just a fraction of that, so we'll hopefully hear from others.
nope
