@TemplarX, I did have my example graded. http://goccf.com/t/353294As far as I know it's the finest known double struck in collar copper LMC known. There are finer known in the zinc composition, however I don't know of any finer in copper. There are some known in MS64BN, and I think I heard rumors of one in MS65BN but can't confirm the existence thereof. If it can't be confirmed mine would be the finest known. Pretty cool IMO. |

You may also want to contact a dealer who is experienced with error coins I would hold off on doing that if I were you. mikediamond has spoken,so include his quote with your submission form and send it to a reputable TPG. That will be you best course of action at the moment.Once you have it back, then you can decide on selling it or keeping it, but the important thing is that it has been authenticated plus back up experts opinions. |

@TemplarX, in case you weren't aware in the world of error coins mike diamond is the name, he's the leading expert, so I'm pretty confident if he calls something it is what he says.

Chase007 and GrapeCollects, I had no idea who Mike Diamond is, or about his expertise in error coins.  Quote:Mike Diamond, error coin specialist, is lead author of Coin World's weekly "Collectors' Clearinghouse," which delves into how errors and varieties are created in U.S. coinage. Coin World: https://www.coinworld.com/authors/m...diamond.htmlIt looks like I came to the right place. I told my brother what you wrote about including his opinion in a submission to a TPG. Thanks again, to all who commented, and a special thanks Mike Diamond for the nice comment.  Edited by TemplarX

Thank you, SilverCents and NDCENT!
It is actually my brother's coin. He found it in change about 30 years ago, but hasn't had it graded yet.
I believe he is going to do that soon.
