Bidding Starts At A Million + .....double Headed 1964 Nickel On Ebay.

If you mean a die (incuse) that created a raised and reversed image, the only way to do it would be to start with a hub that had a raised and reversed image. Or deliberately hand cut a die that would produce a raised and reversed image. With todays computer cutting of dies you could start with the regular design and have the computer reverse the depth so what would be the high points were the low points when it cut the hub. That would give you a die that would produce raised reversed images.

I wouldn't even pay over $200 for that coin.

Yeah, me too. Worth much more than $200.

But when you're talking about a one of a kind like this, it doesn't matter.

The perception right now is there is only one. Perception drives value. As I've said, another 10 billion of this yr/mm minted doesn't change the value of this coin. If other similar ones like this pop up then yeah, that may affect it. It's not a simple doubled die or clip.

I know it's a big cute pup nose, but does anyone else see a duckling when they look at llewellin's avatar?

My 2 cents here....the market is the market. If your market is one fool that will pay a million dollars for a coin that may or may not be unique, that's still a market - if it sells. And I'm not calling anyone a fool here. I spend lots of money on things most people wouldn't and I know I'm a fool sometimes. My wife would say "daily".

Example: there is a seller that has a 1997 baseball card I'm interested in listed on ebay for the past 5+ years for anywhere between $1,1750 and $3,000 depending on the week. I know this because I have a search for this subset of cards that I've been trying to finish for the past 20 years. Until I win the PowerBall, there is no way I'm going to pay $2k+ for a card that is MAYBE worth $300 at auction.

I've made offers in the past but this seller has no interest in selling where the market (me) is. So his market (or is it mine?) just doesn't exist.

You all know this. I'm just taking a moment to regale you with a very boring anecdote.

I know the label says "Mirror Brockage" but isn't this just an early stage brockage as defined by Error-ref.com?

Of course the value is determined by the market but the seller of this coin is going after "Market Buzz". And it has worked!

There is a Jefferson nickel currently for sale, for reference, with multiple errors on the same coin- They are asking $1,700.
