ok so whatever this was (even if it was a turkey sandwich) $9000 sounds a bit over the top. Even if it was mentioned in an article.

Way over priced!
I think he would be lucky if someone offered him more than a hundred bucks for it.

Very nice presentation piece. Unfortunately, the cost of framing that coin and newspaper clipping, probably cost more than the value of the error itself. Strike-through errors on 25-cent coins, that affect less than 25% of the coins surface, just don't command any serious value to an error collector.

This, is the difference between a serious strike-through error and a small strike-through error.

Anyone else notice it hasn't sold yet? For that price he'll have to will it to his grand kids before getting a 10th of what is being asked.

Neither of the coins posted are die caps. Die caps look very different.

yes not a die cap what so ever, and has nothing to do with a die cap.

I like the idea of having a collection of coins that have been published in a magazine or catalog. But I doubt the 5 minutes of fame for this error is worth the extra $8879.
