    If it shows reeding, it can’t be a Broadstruck. Not an error or a dryer coin, just worn and worth it’s weight in silver.

    There are NO mint issues with ths quarter. What you see is just damage and MD. Value 25 cents.
  3. Greenstang
    It is a Large Date. You are wasting your time if you are looking for a 1982 copper Small Date.
  4. Greenstang
    Nothing there that indicates why it should be worth more than 5 cents. It has some worthless Machine Doubling, but that is all. Also do not use screen shots, They are too pixilated to see small detail.

    Duplicate post

    Welcome Please post each coin on it’s own thread with a clear picture of both sides plus a closeup of your area of concern. It gets confusing with more than one coin per thread. Also FYI, a Doubled Die is a variety, not an error. There is a big difference between the two.

    Welcome to the forum That is a one look counterfeit. All you have to do is compare your photo with a genuine photo to easily see the differences.

    A kitchen scale is useless for weighing cins, you need an accurate weight to at least two decimal points to be of any help.
  9. Greenstang
    What is the weight to two decimal points?

    Welcome to the Forum That is not an error or struck on the wrong planchet, it is what is known as a “Texas Cent”. It has been pounded between two pieces of leather which has removed the copper and has expanded the zinc core. We see these periodically on the forum. There is no value to it except as a curiosity piece. Do not waste your time taking it to a coin dealer. FYI, it couldn’t be a wrong planchet as it would be too large to fit in a 1 cent collar.

    I will take a stab at it and say salt water damage.
  12. Greenstang
    No, you are vprobably right. I did not realise the Lira was was demonetized so it probably worthless. At least the Canadian Dollar is still worth a Dollar Canadian.
  13. Greenstang
    Yes it is. A Doubled Die is on the striking die so all coins struck frrom that die would show Doubling Machine Doubling is a mechanical issue when the coin wa struck so it would only show on coins struck until the issue was corrected so it is possible to have both.

    Welcome to the Forum First, this is forum for buying and selling coins. You should have posted this in the “Newbie “ Forum. As far as your coins go, the Italian coin is worth 500 Lira and the Canadian is worth 1 dollar Canadian. Both are only worth face value. Why did you think they were worth more?
  15. Greenstang
    Welcome to the forum Not a DDO, you can’t have Die Doubling showing on both sides of the coin. Looks like it is Machine Doubling
  16. Greenstang
    "ignore any bitterness from these old men." Nobodys being bitter, just trying to find what research the OP did to come to the conclusion that a damaged coin has value over face.
  17. Greenstang
    Damage is not an error and adds no value to a coin. You couldn't even use that in a slot machine.
  18. Greenstang
    Deleted, not thinking and gave wrong info.
  19. Greenstang
    The rough texture was caused by some sort of environmental or chemical damage. What is the weight to two decimal points.
  20. Greenstang
    Where did you come across that? I’ve been looking for a blue cap variety, the only ones I can find are the white variety
  21. Greenstang
    There is nothing that resembles a die clash from pictures provided. Please take out of 2x2 and shoot a clearer picture. Unless we can see the details, we cannot help.
  22. Greenstang
    Welcome to the forum Agree with your authority. There is no way that could happen when the coin was struck. so it is PMD ( Post Minting Damage)
  23. Greenstang
    Why do you think it is worth grading? It is a common 1982 copper cent that had millions produced. It would cost $50-60 dollars to have graded and has a value of 1 cent.
  24. Greenstang
    And the price will probably drop as more are found. With this being on at least one die, there would be hundreds of thousands of them produced.
