<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Barnabus, post: 1949096, member: 71080&quot;]Took this thing to two coin shops today.</p><p>This is what one said:</p><p>I have been dealing with coins for over 40 years, and have sold hundreds of thousands of them, and bought nearly as many. I have done countless Mint error inspections and purchases. I have never seen a mint error like this, but it is probably common... As for the S, I can&#039;t see it, I don&#039;t have a microscope, but I know that it is not there, and your eyes are fooling you, because there is no logical way it could have gotten there, and it cannot be there. I would say it is worth a few dollars at most.</p><p>The second said:</p><p>This is an interesting coin, what do you think it is? I answered him. I can tell you that it is a mint error, but I don&#039;t know what I would even call this, it has so many apparent issues, that I could only say it is a mint error coin. I do see the S, and I have no Idea what that could even be, it is so much smaller than the P, that it cannot be a accidental extra Mint mark. But it is almost perfectly aligned to be a mint mark, and looks very symmetrical. I do think that there is something there, but I cannot be sure if it is an S, or maybe a foreign object landed on coin before die struck and left the impression. I would suggest that if you can spend the money, then send it in to be verified, graded, and encapsulated. If you win, you will win big, but if you lose, well just be prepared to lose, and hope for the best.</p><p>So that is the verdict. Now comes time to save up some $$ and send it in, after all. $100.00 is the cost to get it graded and verified, and if I lose, eh, I&#039;ll get 100$ more dollars someday. However I guess I will look at it like gambling, 50/50 in my opinion. Laissez les bons temps rouler[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
