    Well, someone in the error forum told you they sell for up to $10. My own take - I'll give you a dime if you throw in a Roosie, and pay the postage. Seriously, except to an error collector something like that is essentially worthless.

    Thanks I haven't checked my other post yet. I'm not surprised at the value, I think $10 is great. If I could sell it, thats 1,000 times face value.

    That is a cool coin.
    How did you find it?
    I bid on one once and lot the bid.

    I searched through a coffee jar full of cents my father collected from pocket change. I found it several weeks ago and almost forgot about it cause I found that Dropped letter error about the same time.

    Even though I don't look through all of the change that goes through my hand for things like dropped letters--I do some....in fact....I have had about 100 1974 Halfs and then remembered that there is a DD for that date...duh...Let us know what eles you find!

    I sur will Speedy!

    In fact I do have another good find to share. I will be poting in the main forum under INTERESTING FINDS thread. I have not taken a pic yet of that one. It is a 1995 Washington Quarter with a rotated die error.
    My first rotated die find ever, I can't wait to show everyone. I wonder what that will be worth?

    I think you need to send me your change bag!!!
    How much is it rotated???
    The value will depend on that.

    Rotation is very significant. I do not know a way to measure the angle yet. I thought of trying to draw a pattern on paper and getting a rough estimate.
    My change bag is no different than yours. Take for instance that 1995 rotated die;I searched a batch of 2000 Quarters to find it. I guess I have been a little lucky lately, but it is largely due to the high volume and time I have put in to searching. As Winter ends , so will my sifting through circulated coins.
    Thats the plan anyway!
