<p>[QUOTE="bubu, post: 539968, member: 11041"]YEs,i believe it is a brockage strike error.At first,i thought it was a DUAL mule obverse error-both sides of the coin struck with obverse dies just like the indian head 1859 coin(the only difference is the die on reverse side were hole like get into it)Till i realized someone has said it is a brockage full reverse side error on the other coin forum.I was told that is something you'd want to get authenticated by one of the major TPGs or an error expert like Weinberg. They can be easily faked. The first thing to look for is any trace of the reverse design still visible under the incuse obverse (home-made on a normal coin) or an underweight coin (home-made by planing off the reverse before impressing another coin).</p><p> </p><p>The coin dealer is selling it at $30,000 becouse he says its worth alot of money and will be auctioned at spink auction house next month if nobody really can afford it.</p><p> </p><p>I do have a question here,does it really special and attractive and really worth million of dollar if sell at auction house?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
