my76strat Valued Member United States 128 Posts	Posted 06/09/2015 12:28 am I am curious of others' opinions as to the value of this 2000 cent; an apparent broadstrike. Thank you. Report this Post to the Staff

my76strat Valued Member United States 128 Posts	Posted 06/09/2015 03:43 am Thank you. When you say "in today's market", do you mean to imply a "buyers market" where its value could increase with a shift in the market, or a "sellers market" where the amount this might fetch today could take a tumble if the market reversed?

This is a wild guess. I take to confirm it is genuine so congrats on a nice coin regardless of the scratches. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/10/2015 04:26 am Yes it is real. Damage to coin may have happened during the strike or after. But it is a legit error. Nice centered broad struck. Report this Post to the Staff
my76strat Valued Member United States 128 Posts	Posted 06/11/2015 4:19 pm I like this coin for the "text-book" illustrations it gives of a broadstrike in general. For example: a closer look shows ripples of the metal's flow as it exceeds its prescribed boundary for having been struck outside of its collar. Also, the striations around the coin are undisturbed at the "8:30 scratch", which seems to indicate it as mint damage occurring during the strike. While it is clear that the coin is clean, I do not acquiesce that it has necessarily been cleaned. Its patine is very consistent with other lightly circulated coins of its era that I have seen.
