SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 03/10/2014 5:59 pm I wouldn't know how to value something like that, except to say I'd probably spend too much for it. Looks righteous to me. And the perfect scenario - clear dates on both strikes. Can't be many like it. Report this Post to the Staff
Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 03/10/2014 6:05 pm Looks legit to me. This coin is like this on both the obv. and rev. ? Two pictures show two different planchets. I'm confused Report this Post to the Staff
jasper62 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 03/10/2014 6:27 pm If I'm correct it's one planchet.The reverse and the obverse side.It's almost to perfect. what would you call it. Flip over double struck, Both strikes off center by the exact same margin. What are the odds Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/10/2014 8:07 pm Note the un-struck area. it is not the same image twice. My question would be why it isn't graded? Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 03/10/2014 8:14 pm I have a bad feeling about this piece. Surfaces look odd, it's on a blank not a planchet, The coincidence of the placement of the two strikes is a long shot. I don't know, it just doesn't feel right. Report this Post to the Staff
jasper62 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 03/10/2014 8:15 pm I just ask the seller if he could weigh it in grams. Also ask if it sticks to a Magnet. Let see if I get a response Edited by jasper62 03/10/2014 8:19 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Alexer Pillar of the Community Canada 2632 Posts	Posted 03/10/2014 8:41 pm It kind of looks to good to be true...and the odds..through the roof. Not that many sales under his belt mind you we all start somewhere. I'm sure I would avoid it and purchase off someone with a good error reputation instead. Like Coop says how come not graded?
