you already contacted george manz and he offered 100.00, at coin shows adealer at most will offer 200.to 250 for this coin. if you plan to sell it , have a price in mind sell it privately or ebay it, keep it mind ebay fees of around 13% good luck

I notice a number of posts are more concerned about the coins grade then the error...
Many serious error coin & currency collectors purchase the coin for the error itself, and not the grade, although receiving a high grade is a plus...
You will never locate a error price guide that lists values of errors by grade point, such as;
2006 Nickel struck on a Cent planchet ~ EF40 = $?, AU55 = $?, and price values are (IMHO) generic values on the type of error itself, reguardless of date/grade on common dated coins... Strong premiums can be expected if the error is on a low mintage or type coin...
ANACS certification is cheaper and I don't see the cost exceeding $25.00 tops (for a single submission) and cheaper if submitting multiple coins...
I strongly believe errors purchased raw, then certified, receive premiums that cover the certification fees multiple times over when re-selling the coin.

The grade is important to me in a limited sense . I wouldn't pay a premium for a point or two higher in mint state . Though I focus on mintstate errors with nice eye appeal and I usually avoid circulated errors .

A small handful of advanced error collectors will be at the Coin Expo in late May in Toronto. That would be a good place to show it. If you intend to sell, wait until then - you will always come out ahead selling to a collector, rather than a dealer, at a coin show.
