<p>[QUOTE=&quot;huntsman53, post: 397568, member: 1242&quot;]Sharon,</p><p><br /></p><p>Wlecome to Coin Talk and congrats on your&#039; nice Error coin! Values for these errors varies significantly with each and every Series of coinage minted. While an Indian Head Cent or Shield Nickel will fetch a significant premium percentage-wise above it&#039;s already collectibility value, others such as 1840&#039;s and 1850&#039;s Large Cents and others will not fetch similar premiums. There are Series of coins that were plagued with Die Rotation while others saw very little if any rotation and these latter ones with significant Die rotation are the ones that are highly sought after! Besides having any real guides (books and other reference material) for values, this is just one more area where Error Coin Collectors suffer a lack of information. Unless you have been into collecting these type of coins for many, many years and have been compiling data on the frequency of these type of errors for every Series and every denomination, then you (as well as the rest of us) pretty much have to wing-it on your own. Some information can be found by using the many Search engines on the Web, by using different combinations of wording about the error to find more Websites with the information you need. However, this is sometimes very tedious and when you have done all of the searching that can be done, you are sometimes still at a loss for information. I don&#039;t want to appear like I am delivering a message of gloom and doom but if you collect Error coins like me and many others on Coin Talk, then that is what we must live with!</p><p><br /></p><p>IMHO, your&#039; coin should have a value of at least 100% over it&#039;s true Market value for it&#039;s grade! However, there are many Collectors that would not want to pay that much and others that would be willing to pay much more.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Frank[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
