I'm looking to list this but I'm having a hard time finding an average on what these typically sell for. Some listings on ebay seem ridiculously high.

40.00 seems like a reasonable price for something like this. The full date shows, so it's more valuable then a dateless one.

Well it looks like the obverse die had a collar clash on it:

First time I've seen that on a coin. (Below the motto on the left side.

I Think E&V's estimate of $40 is about right.

That's really interesting Coop! So just to clarify, you haven't seen a collar clash on an off center struck coin or on a Roosevelt dime?

Correct. Unless the die is damaged, you won't see the collar clash marks on an off center coin. So an off center coin will only have these if the die has the collar clash damage. (That is why I included the images from error-ref.com)

What are the letters on the reverse left top side from? Would this be from the collar clash?

Looks pretty close to mine from 1979. I see the proto-rim
identified by Coop on mine, I see a slight collar clash on
the reverse. Your collar clash is pronounced enough to have
teeth.

Thanks SilverDon, but what are the letters above states on the reverse? Is that what your calling a proto-rim?

I looked and then looked again. Unable to make out any letters above "STATES". Also that area should not be related to the proto rim.

More thoughts concerning collar impressions on a coin struck off center. I like to determine which side reflects the anvil die and which side reflects the hammer die. Then deduce it from there.

If the collar and anvil die are in proper position, then I can see how some collar contact can occur on the coins anvil side do too the force applied by the hammer die.

If anomaly is present on the coins hammer side, then logic suggests a collar clash might be present on the hammer die as the collar contact (if any) is on the opposite side of the coin. In reference to a single off center strike that is.

Below is two views of a defaced State Quarter working hub with evidence of a previous collar clash.

Also I'm not one who normally questions error-ref descriptions, but thinking "working hub" might should read "working die". Thanks, Doug.
