just4fun Valued Member United States 153 Posts	Posted 01/19/2008 10:38 pm I have 3 differant 1969 1 Centavos with errors. Can't find any information on them at all. Two of them have the 19 doubled. (look at pics # 1 & 3) Third one has what seems to have crack on the reverse. (look at pics b & c) Thank you in advance. Could I get any and all information, or where to find information and value on these coins.

If you're seriously interested in these coins, you might need to get yourself a specialist Colombian catalogue; an Amazon search for "Colombian Coins" only comes up with this one, dating from 1973. And with a publishing date so close to the date on the coins, I don't know if these varieties would have been known about at the time. I suspect anything else published about these coins is likely to be in Spanish. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
swamperbob Pillar of the Community United States 5362 Posts	Posted 01/20/2008 7:55 pm The Columbia series is well known for many poorly repunched dies and doubled hubs. They are also know for over using dies, many of the terminal state dies show numerous serios cracks. As far as I know, there is no comprehensive catalog of the varieties and right now they do not command much of a premium. I always pull these from junk boxes and accumulations whenever I see them.
