<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 1245300, member: 21705&quot;]This is one of My misfit coins which is a nice way to describe the problem coins you are talking about.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy168/MBryant31958/Coins/400 US/0200 Large Cents/Liberty Caps/S-86.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Since this is copper, melt doesn&#039;t apply. But this is not considered collectable by some. However, there are only about 50 total of the variety. The details grade is a conservative 15 which would be in a tie for about 10th in the CC. However, the coin was cut. This may be even more severe than a holed coin. I knocked it down two full grades because of this. Perhaps it is too little or perhaps too much. In any event, it is still a worthy coin for my collection. A problem free coin would go for about $6000. I have it priced as a $750 coin and think it&#039;s worth twice that. </p><p><br /></p><p>I do not ever consider it&#039;s value to be totally compromised to that of junk at under $100. I do think it has reduced value, but as you said. It is an affordable rarity and well worth having to those of us with modest means.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just for grins, those of you who can&#039;t stand problem coins are asked to assign a value that you would: </p><p><br /></p><p>A offer for this and </p><p>B offer to sell this for if it were yours to sell.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
