merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 09/27/2021 2:36 pm Spike heads generally don't bring much money I'm afraid. Check ebay's SOLD listings for similar coins and see what they bring. to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/27/2021 3:39 pm Just a die event. No premium. They list them on some sites. But I don't know of anyone buying these. Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19208 Posts	Posted 09/27/2021 3:56 pm Nice example. You might find a collector who goes bonkers for Wheat cent die cracks, and might be willing to spend $1-2 for one like yours. Report this Post to the Staff
