<p>[QUOTE="neuman456, post: 240110, member: 9217"]I found a John Adams Dollar today that is an absolutely gorgeous double die where the inscription on the edges overlap each letter so closely that it even makes the 1955 look bad. Does anyone have an insight as to what this might be worth? I took it to a coin shop and he offered me $200 to begin with and kept going up until he stopped at $500. Would ebay be the best place to list it or should I try something else like Southerbies? I mean if someone offered me $2000 tomorrow I wouldn't know if it was a heck of a deal or if I undersold it. My gut tells me that it is worth at least a grand if a coin shop offered me $500, but if it was really worth thousands I would have thought he would had upped his offer to at least a grand. I've found a bunch of double lettered ones on ebay and even some where you will see for example 2 2 0 0 0 0 7 7, but none where they touch so close, but yet not close enough to make it not look like a double die. Any comments apppreciated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
