Yes, I will take from danlos9551 and use the sneaky technique and try for 750 and if they are reluctant I will price it down.
Thanks a lot guys!

I have a similar coin, but mine is a dollar, struck onto a 1c planchet.
I have no idea what its worth.

What dollar series? Loon dollar? Nickel dollar?

Quote: What dollar series? Loon dollar? Nickel dollar? Whoops, How did I forget to mention that. Its a loon dollar. Quote: Cool, do you have photos too. I have some scans that I did a while ago. (They are not very good)   Anyone have an idea what this is worth?

The loon dollar looks like it's struck on a blank larger than a cent planchet. What's it's weight? Is it magnetic? Other possibilities would be - struck on a blank intended for a foreign coin, or an elliptical clipped dollar blank.
I'm not sure what it's worth. Hundreds. A nice big error coin!

Quote: The loon dollar looks like it's struck on a blank larger than a cent planchet. I think it was just flattened out when it was struck. Quote: What's it's weight? Is it magnetic Unfortunately, I don't have a scale to weigh the coin that would be accurate enough, and the coin is not magnetic. Quote: Other possibilities would be - ... or an elliptical clipped dollar blank. Could you expand on this? I am not sure what an elliptical clipped dollar blank is.

An elliptical clip error is the result of a blank that has been accidentally clipped into a football shape. Your coin being non-magnetic probably rules out the elliptical clip option.

I'd guess $500-$750. Possibly a bit more if it really catches someone's fancy :)

Quote: Both very nice errors, I have one from 1980, 25 cent struck on a penny planchet..The person I bought it from had it since the 1980's. I remember seeing that coin in an older thread D, very nice!
