steve123 Pillar of the Community Canada 805 Posts	Posted 04/14/2015 4:04 pm I'm looking for any input on this 1720 double-struck error. As I am mainly dealing in Canadian and US, World errors are new to me. Is this a more "common" error for the time? I have seen other nicely struck coins. Besides being double-struck, this also looks like the inside N" on the reverse is re-engraved? Thanks, Steve Report this Post to the Staff

Any one? me Quote: Would you say that examples of this error are somewhat common from that era? This is the third(yet most impressive) example I've seen in about a week.(talking about one bill posted) billsidney Quote: Let's say that doublestrikes of the series are "scarce", certainly not rare. to summarize the coin is fairly common compared to other errors but still a collectible and scarce piece. if you twisted my arm I would pay $100. sorry for the long post Feel free to call me Will.

steve123 Pillar of the Community Canada 805 Posts	Posted 04/14/2015 4:30 pm Really!?!? I never thought it may go for that..I had it in my store for a few days and asked just under $50 and got a few lowball offers (still more than I paid, but the shipping price was high). I did buy it cheap (as you can see).... so that was a plus. I liked it so much tho, that I withdrew it for now. I was the only bidder and didn't think I would get it if anyone was sniping. Thanks for the info! Edited by steve123 04/14/2015 4:41 pm Report this Post to the Staff

steve123 Pillar of the Community Canada 805 Posts	Posted 04/15/2015 7:26 pm Interestingly enough... I was searching for more info (grade / value, etc) on my coin. I actually found that it sold under auction as a "Miscellaneous item" from London Coins on 03/03/2013. Everything matches up perfectly to my coin. It sold for 35 British Pounds, converting that to CAD from historical dates, final auction price on 03/03/2013 was $54.02 CDN. http://www.londoncoins.co.uk/?page=...searchtype=2 Report this Post to the Staff
