The 3 cent piece is still priced at double the Red Book value for a problem-free AU coin.

The 1859 is not exactly the most beautiful of coins either, to say the least.

Wow, that thing is only 13 years old? I guess it's had a rough life!

That's sure an interesting 'heavy clipped planchet error'. Quote: CANADIAN QUARTER CARIBOU QUEEN Note that it was not struck under queen Elizabeth II as normal 2002 issues were, but under the Caribou Queen.

Quote:Really harsh cleaning or is the coin in a badly scratched case? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/US-indian...AOSwo6lWPduj Thanks NumisRob! I think I finally understand what a whizzed coin looks like!  Did you check out the seller's disclaimer? Quote: All our items come to us as secondhand with little knowledge.

It's most certainly not in a case at all, as evidenced by the shadow around WNW.

It's not cleaned, but badly abused with a metal bruch for no reason whatsoever.
