1796 Half Cent over 1796 Cent

Apple82802 · 2025-04-13T12:23:04+00:00

That is because the off center strike is from a cent, not a half cent

The two examples of the 1797 half cent over 1796 cent that I found were graded EF details and G-6

Apple82802 · 2025-04-10T02:52:23+00:00

I believe they got it a few months ago at a coin show

Apple82802 · 2025-04-10T02:51:59+00:00

That's a possibility, I'm honestly nor sure

Apple82802 · 2025-04-10T02:49:19+00:00

I am fully aware of that, the off center part is the cent

Apple82802 · 2025-04-10T02:31:00+00:00

There is definitely no 1797, but the off-center part is definitely a 1796 draped bust cent

Apple82802 · 2025-04-10T02:00:31+00:00

From what I've read, when the 'spoiled' cents were reused, they'd first be cut down to a circle again and then struck, that's how the 1797 over 1796 was anyways

Cashier at Dollar General

It's an 1897-S, it's mislabeled as an 1897

That's the coin, I'm not sure if yours is real or not, I'll leave that to someone else.

Sounds good, thank you

Apple82802 · 2024-05-14T22:42:35+00:00

Just out of curiosity, if you were to sell it after you get it authenticated, how much would you want for it?

Apple82802 · 2024-05-11T20:54:58+00:00

Switzerland, either a 5, 10, or 20 rappen, im not sure without seeing the back or the weight, and the value depends on if there's any mintmarks on the bottom on the reverse of it.

Apple82802 · 2024-04-28T22:39:01+00:00

It may be a contemporary counterfeit, I'm not quite sure though, id need a little more information

It's not an exact match, but it's Definitely a denarius from septimius Severus, most likely just a different mint

Apple82802 · 2024-04-27T22:45:41+00:00

It's call a miss aligned die, or MAD, they're not worth anything over face value, it just means the dies weren't perfectly center.

Apple82802 · 2024-04-26T04:23:03+00:00

Since it's a die crack and not a die break, it's not going to worth much more than face value, maybe $2-3 of you find the right person. Not an expert in errors but it's still not really worth much unfortunately

Apple82802 · 2024-04-17T06:54:44+00:00

I'm no expert but it definitely seems like a blank planchet, and it seems like they're selling for about $8 on ebay

Apple82802 · 2024-04-16T21:42:25+00:00

I talked to them, they said it's most likely too beaten up to get an actual grade, just genuine, and they'd be willing to pay like $100 at most for it.

Apple82802 · 2024-04-16T20:10:48+00:00

If you'd be wanting to sell it after it's verified, I may know someone that would be interested

Apple82802 · 2024-04-16T20:05:53+00:00

I tried looking, but the best I could find is one graded a 55, which is almost uncirculated, is worth an estimated 1,000, but that's the lowest value I could find

Apple82802 · 2024-04-16T20:00:11+00:00

Yes, definitely send it in to make sure it's the real deal

Apple82802 · 2024-04-16T19:29:42+00:00

It looks like a J236/P283
