It hammered at 174. Possibly a coin dealer picked it up... we'll see once it is slabbed and comes out onto the market again.
i really wanted it, i bid 97.50 at 3 seconds, then it jumped to 110, i then bid 125.00 and it ended at 174, grrr, next time just gonna bid like 300...i do much better at coin shows, today i got over 700.00 retail in errors for 180.00 and a lot of cool stuff...wish i had more $$$ would of bought this guy out...
I have faced similar situations before. Paid a large sum of money on one coin, and not much budget left for upcoming ones.
It would fetch quite an amount after it is slabbed, considering a "W" mint, and a recent date of 2020.
here is one for ya: $129.00 + free ship, bin struck through "w" error https://www.ebay.com/itm/2036774850...jRgqMyv7QMhIbqySKzP8WFqG_7l8BozEaAksXEALw_wcB
Not struck on dime stock, too heavy. Just missing the clad layer. If it was just struck on dime stock the weight would be believable (~ 4.16 grams) but then losing the clad layer would reduce the weight by another .66 grams so 3.5 grams. A quarter losing a clad layer would be ~4.76 grams Which strikes me as being closer to your coin.
Most missing clad errors are the result of an insecure bond of the clad layer(s). The weight of the coin in question is an important piece of data to know in making the attribution. I have calculated the weights of single clad layers which would be helpful in understanding the weight such a coin should show. The exception is that a coin which is missing a clad layer because of a rolling error in the bonding mill which leaves only one clad layer on the coin instead of two. Such a coin will be normal weight and thickness. by pete apple from ccf so..as above says, if rolled on stock where just the cladding is missing and weight would be the same as a normal coin, is it possible this happened this way, (not trying to argue, just is it possible?)
