I have asked a mod to move this to the appropriate Forum, this Forum is for registered sets.

Your coin is just damage and worth  25 cents.

If someone offered you $10.00, take it and run.

Would definitely take the $10. But if it was a good friend wanting it I would feel bad about charging that much for it. Would probably just give it to them. It's just a common coin badly damaged.

Or, possibly the person offering does not have much experience with error coins.

Yours is damaged, as others have said. Spend it wisely.

Well that's funny because it's not a bad coin it's a planchet error coin all pitted on copper core an zinc nickle layer covers all damaged spots an can clearly see that if bad damaged coin you would see copper but you don't see copper if don't know don't give people bad advise just don't answer it an that can from heritage auction house us mint error expert

The fact that you don't see the copper core does not mean it can't be damage. And, the fact that the rims show the same damage tells me that the pits were not there before the coins was struck, meaning that they occurred after the coin was minted. There is displacement of metal, and there are remnants of the lettering and design in some of the damaged areas. This, to me, is consistent with a damaged coin, not a lamination error or other planchet flaw.

You posted your coin with a request for opinions. You got opinions. You then replied that if people did not agree with your opinion, they should not have answered. All we can do is answer honestly. If you don't like or agree with our opinions, you are free to ignore them, and do what you wish with your coin.

Good luck.

Sorry @Brian ab, you have been deceived by anyone not seeing that coin as a damaged piece of junk.

If I understand correctly, you're saying that the copper core was pitted and when they added the Copper/Nickel clad layer (not zinc nickle) it filled in the the pits leaving the depressed regions, Correct?

If you understand manufacturing process, you’ll know that you’re explanation can’t happen.  You start with 3 layers that are bonded and rolled together.  The outer clad are too thick to sag into any defects in the copper core layer, it will remain flat as it’s rolled.  Even after striking, it wouldn’t look like your coin

I am also very skeptical that an error expert from Heritage Auctions would tell you that this coin was an error.  They know too much about the minting process to make that basic mistake.

The only thing I see is a coin that suffered environmental damage and circulation wear and tear.  Nothing more.

Please, please, please send it to Heritage and let us know how that works out for you.  

Narrator:  Unfortunately, the cost of the postage was higher than the value of the coin.

Maybe, just maybe if you wrote as if you ever had a high school level English class I would think it worth while to go on.

Might be a good idea to send a link to this thread to Heritage and see which of their "experts" said this was an error! I suspect he wouldn't have a job for long.

Maybe Mark Feld will see this and show it to his co-workers. He may not be the error expert, but I bet he works closely with him/her.

 

Edit: I sent him a message, in case he wants to comment on this thread.

You did? Where did you tell us that? Certainly not here in this thread. Go back and look at what you typed above. You never said anything about what you posted first or second.

If you could post a link to the other coins that look like yours, that have sold on Heritage, Great Collections, or another legitimate site, I would be happy to look at them.

Just Bob, thank you for making me aware of this thread.

The coin simply looks badly damaged, not like an error. And to put it mildly, I have a very hard time believing that anyone at Heritage who answers coin inquiries as I do, would call it an error.

Brian ab, please either post the email from Heritage here or send it to me by private message. I look forward to seeing it.

When is it appropriate for me to holler, "Liar"? I tremble in ill-concealed anticipation.

That’s not for me to say. But I hope he was confused or misunderstood and that he wasn’t intentionally lying.

If you are saying that the "Heritage auction house US Mint error expert" told you it was a real error (I SERIOUSLY doubt that), sell it to Heritage for big bucks, or the $10, because it is just a damaged coin.
