It's not worth as much but it is a Poor Mans in AU Condition. Nothing severe. But I have a place where I can get a roll of Severe DDO 55-D's.

I bought a 1783 Washington Token for $250. It was a brass die trial, one of two known to exist. Each die back then hand detailed. They would strike with soft medal (brass, lead, or the like) to see if the die worked. Mine was the better of the two. I held it for about 25 years and sold it for $15,000.

1812-15 2bits hard times quarter

[

this is my first and only piece of eight, it is counter stamped by the planter's bank of New Orleans and sells at auctions for around 5 thousand dollars. there was a shortage of quarters during the war of 1812 so the planters bank used 8reales cut into quarters and counterstamped them. I found it in southwest Mississippi Tylertown by a flow well near an old Victorian homesite I still have it although I do need to have it sent off for slabbing and verification. it made best finds of 2012 in western and eastern treasures magazine in this months issue.. check it out.
QUOTE=Marc;3943]Please respond to the poll above. Thanks.

You can also reply to this if you want, and tell us: What is it? Where'd you find it? Do you still have it?

No extra value.

Can you post a pic of this particular coin because based on your description of railroad rim you have what is called a partial collar strike and it may also be broad struck as well if the design elements are not cut off....... If so it would certainly be worth a premium, need pics though.

I am thinking it's a misaligned die.
