pennysaver Pillar of the Community Canada 937 Posts	Posted 08/16/2012 11:13 pm Hi noah I'm not sure what it's actually worth -- I've got a nickel that has no beads or denticles at all, on either side, at least until you hold it up to the light and then see the faint spots where they should be, and I picked it up for only just over $5. That said, quarters are worth more, so may command a bit of a premium. I may be wrong on this but I don't think that this variety is overly valuable, so I figure that it's maxed out about where it is. Just one man's opinion, but I hope it helps.

t_y Pillar of the Community Canada 632 Posts	Posted 08/22/2012 12:59 pm I am sure the coin is either a PL or a business strike - not a proof. Hard to be see in the ebay pictures but I am leaning towards dialog_gvb reply: strike through grease. If John100 can get a clearer picture of the area we can be more precise. A die plug on such extensive area and affecting both dies simultaneously would be something! Report this Post to the Staff
