The 2005p penny. I remember it was a big deal but I have plenty of them now. Even the 2006 no p magnetic seems to be dropping in value.

Some of the one ounce "maple leaf" silver bullion issues from the early to mid-2000's seem to be selling on ebay for, like, three times their Krause "book" value. Granted, the mintages aren't huge, but they're not tiny, either. I'd think there's a distinct possibility that current buyers at those price points are going to come up losers unless silver itself takes a big jump up.

> I now feel that the 1932 'Far 2' Nickel may, in fact, not even be a black and white variety at all.

Doesn't something have to be overrated to be overrated?

Certainly one could argue overpriced. But, most of the talk on here has always downplayed it.

Over rated: 2000P 10 cent. Under rated: PL coins with ultra heavy cameo contrast, particularly nickel coins.

Sorry to kick an old thread, but the 1926 far 6 would be my vote

1858 large cent. 1891 large cent varieties. All very common and overpriced.

6 years after my original reply to this thread I gotta agree about the 48 dollar, 1858 penny, and 1891 penny, and the 26 nickel. I remember seeing a whole role of 1858 pennies on here years ago.

I gotta agree with the '48 dollar and the 1858 cent (any coin show has a plethora of them both). As a collector of Vicky cent varieties, there are a number of 1859/8 types that are much much scarcer than the 1858's. And the '91 Obv 2's are a little overpriced, but not like the Obv 3's. I can't comment on the '26 5 cent.

Of the coins I got for the my small and large cent, the 1891 Small Leaves and a few of the small cent varieties I just skipped. The 1891 Small Leaves, I decided to just skip. Can't see it being worth so much more than the 1891 large leaves. I picked up the 1858 for a fair price, so I don't agree that one is over valued.

The 1999 P small cent I think was a very good priced considering there are only ~ 20000.
