Sold that on ebay for about $80 last year, it was my best find while CRH.


Found that 25 centavos at a TD Bank Penny Arcade.. worth maybe $100?

Those are my best finds, from CRHing.

Mine was actually 10 days ago... a G-6 1918-D Buffalo nickel. Worth about $30 based on the $22 value in G-4 and $40 in VG-8. Best of all, it replaced the one in my Dansco Album which was an AG-3!

That's an awesome find, but was it CRHing? Mine is pretty low. An 1883 IH penny in VG condition.

1913 TY1 Buffalo nickel found in a roll but looks unc.

I have never found a coin worth more than face value.

Coin roll hunting - 1928 P Dollar from a teller. Detecting - 1774 full gold guinea on the beach from a shipwreck.

1955 AU-56 dbl die wheat cent.

In all seriousness though, I found a 1868 VG-10 IH cent.

My best find was this in collar double struck penny with weak first strike. Hopefully I find another one soon.

Awesome

In my relatively short stint as a CRHer, I would say mine is a rotated reverse Jefferson Nickel that I posted not too long ago. Don't know what I would actually get for it; but, I would assume that it would be more than a silver war nickel.

Hightek: in all the many years of my coin collecting days (since the '60's) I have NEVER come across a double cross strike penny like you found. Great find & congrats. HH
