    I just went and took a look over at ebay and there are sellers asking between $5 and $25 for this coin with similar die chips/breaks, some not as advanced as yours and some similar or more extensive. There is one joker asking 2k+. doh! In my quick researching die chips/breaks in that area seam to be common and given the apparent frequency at which they occur, plus the less than dramatic appearance, I would put a low premium on this coin. It's an interesting error, but I wouldn't consider it monetarily valuable. 

    Do you have any additional information on the coin, and why it would be considered valuable? Who is saying that it is valuable?

     

    Is this also your professional opinion?

    People put sky high sell prices on coins all the time hoping for some poor soul to buy them. None of the coins you provided links to are worth those asking prices, not even close, but that doesn't mean they won't get sold. Those listings were put up by, either, people who don't know any better or hucksters trying to take advantage of a new collector. If those prices were real there would be zero similar coins available at lower prices. 

    Is this you professional opinion?

    Die chips/breaks? It seems like an over mintmark....there is no way you found a coin like that at the region of 25 dollars, if you did please send me the link.
