One awesome error coin!! 2000 P cent overstruck on an already struck 00 dime!

I just finally got an opportunity to buy an "11 cent" coin error. Somehow they double struck a penny over an already struck dime. Like a double mule LOL. Note that the pics are from the auction company they have not shipped the coin yet so I can not get my own pics. It is PCGS certified ms67. Anyone know anything about the populations on these? I think i might try to hang on to it for a while if me brother doesn't talk me out of it lol.

Wow! That's excellent! But where did you get $11,000,000?! (j/k...inside joke.)

 

actually, a mule would be the pairing of two different dies that do not belong together

eg: The Saci $ & the States quarter mules.

 

Redbook (2010)

Lincoln Cent struck off center on a Roosevelt dime (double denomination-off center). Only a few off center double denominations are known for this series. This is a full dime that was struck off center by cent dies. Value $5,000 or more.

It has to be a little off center, but I don't know how much is required to be considered such.

Great acquisition regardless.

 

That´s a beautiful coin !

 

Congratulations! How much was it?

 

Ya I know it is not a mule but it is kinda like one. But as you pointed out it really isn't so point well made

@ marshall The coin you are talking about from page 407 in 2010 redbook I think refers to something entirely different. On that one it is like 50% off center. I would expect that one to be worth alot more because you have clear Lincoln and Roosevelt. That one is waaaaay cooler lol.

 

@ alex I paid $863 after buyers fee. I have no idea if that is a good price or not but I saw one on ebay as an ms64 for $2000 and saw an NGC unc details scratched go in a different auction for $1500 plus buyer fee.

I'd say you got a good deal...

Redwin do you see this? He paid $863.

 

That is an awesome coin!

 

That is a good price. If i had $1,000, I would definitely buy it!

 

Awesome error and sounds like you got one heck of a deal.

Don't hold your breath Lost, I'm sure he will find some reason why his is far superior to this one.

 

It may be worth less, but I don't think by a whole lot. You have most of the devices of both denominations along with dates. That's cool.

 

Nice. Congrats on a really cool error.

 

Redacted.

 

I just wish I was the one who pulled it out of the roll. The best error I ever found was a blank cent planchet. Government really ripped me off there LOL!

 

Yeah, but his has two dates and a frontal lobotomy.

Redwin is pretending like he didn't see this thread

 

I'm surprised that I haven't seen Redwin's "Miracle" coin by now.
