robbudo Pillar of the Community United States 2757 Posts	Posted 03/20/2014 06:22 am I think we all agree that struck throughs decrease the value of key dates, but check out the nice RPD on this one. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1864-L-Bron...231184160723 Report this Post to the Staff

beaglebailey Pillar of the Community United States 716 Posts	Posted 03/20/2014 08:54 am Very bold repunching. This appears to be an S3. Snow gives it 2 stars. So, you think the strike through decreases the value of this variety? Report this Post to the Staff
robbudo Pillar of the Community United States 2757 Posts	Posted 03/20/2014 12:43 pm minor strike throughs should decrease the value of any key date. key dates are sought after in problem free conditions - the better the condition of the coin (lack of strike throughs, lack of laminations), the better price they command.

beaglebailey Pillar of the Community United States 716 Posts	Posted 03/20/2014 12:55 pm The reason I asked is that on the slab the emphasis is on the strike through error and there is no mention of the variety and repunching. If you want to add value to the coin I think it should be the other way around. Even the seller makes no mention of the variety but advertises the error. Report this Post to the Staff
DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 03/20/2014 5:03 pm For me, the strike-through just degrades the appeal of this coin since LIBERTY is obscured, although 'technically' it appears to be around VF30. The RPD has much more appeal than the error--I also think it matches a Snow-3. Someone might negotiate a good price for that one! Report this Post to the Staff
robbudo Pillar of the Community United States 2757 Posts	Posted 03/20/2014 7:37 pm not sure how NGC submissions work, but maybe the submitter didn't pay for 'research', rather just to verify 'struck through'. the submitter's loss because the RPD on the slab might just move this coin at that price. However, as DVCollector pointed out, the strike through obfuscates details on the coin, making it less appealing. Report this Post to the Staff
