rsraghead Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 I dont collect them, but i own a few I'm thinking of getting rid of. Are they worth more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccg Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Errors (off centres, broadstrikes, clips) are always at a premium, though the type of error (and how dramatic it is), the host piece, and the condition of the piece all play a factor in value. Varieties (die breaks, chips) also usually have a premium but demand may be considerably less, though of course some varieties are considered "mainstream" and highly collectible as such.

rsraghead Posted May 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 I have a 1910 G.B.penny that had a void in the planchet that can be seen on both sides even though they mashed together when the coin was struck. It can be seen with the naked eye. Would this be considered substantial? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccg Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 Looks like it might be an annealing issue with the planchet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robtgossard Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 The condition of the coin does not seem very interesting and guess you would be on the receiving end if you wish to sell them. If I were you, I would reinvest some of the amount in silver coins as the silver price is at a low right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
