Please use the Advanced Search feature on this site to look for postings with "double" in their titles. This question is asked frequently and the answer is the same in each case: There are no genuine modern coins with two heads or two tails. It's a fake.

What is a double headed dollar coin worth?
AnswerThis is NOT something that was done at the Mint. It's a privately made novelty item, known as a Magician's Coin, created by altering two normal coins and joining the pieces back together. Use a magnifier to check just inside the rim on one side of the coin -- you are looking for the seam where the two pieces were joined -- it could be on either side of the coin.They cost about $7-8 new from novelty shops and sell for $2-3 on eBay. They have no value to coin collectors, however, because they are privately made by damaging genuine coins.The only possible good news is that if you have an older magician's dollar made from coins dated 1935 or earlier, it would have enough silver in it that you could probably sell it to a scrap dealer for around $10.The other thing you could do is hold onto it for magic tricks and making bets.... but be prepared to run fast if you use it for a bet.MoreMany years ago the Mint had all coin presses redesigned so that dies are "keyed". That is, obverse dies only fit into the obverse anvil and reverse dies fit into the reverse anvil. It's physically impossible for two same-side dies to be put into a press. While many errors including "mule" coins (half one denomination, half another) can still occur, double-headed coins are not and cannot number among those mistakes.See the related Web Links for more info.Dan Moore The Working Man's Rare Coins http:/www.workingmancoins.com
What is the value of a 1879 420 grain 900 fine trade dollar?
All 1879 trade dollars were proofs and the entire trade dollar series is heavily counterfeited. Most likely, your coin is a counterfeit, but should be examined by someone who knows a lot about coins (good places to start are coin shops and jewelry shops) if you believe it to be genuine, but most likely it is a counterfeit. If genuine it could be worth hundreds to thousands of dollars.
Difference between economic recession and slump?
A slump is just a slang term it could mean recession or it could just mean a short period of time in decline. recession is four business quarters of little or no growth in the economy we have had 1 quarter in the U.S so far
What is the worth of a silver quarter?
It depends on its date and mint mark (if any). At a minimum, the silver would be worth about $3 in scrap value, but if the coin has any collector's value it could be worth much more. Please post a new question with the coin's date and what mint mark it has, if any. On a Washington quarter, the mint mark will be a small S or D above the ER in "QUARTER". If it's a Standing Liberty quarter, the mint mark will be on the front of the coin to the left of and slightly above the date. Coins made in Philadelphia before 1979/80 don't carry mint marks, so don't be concerned if your coin doesn't seem to have one.
What is three quarters of GDP loss?
It is simply three quarters of negative GDP. It could be a recession plus one quarter. Three quarter of negative GDP growth alone is NOT a depression. A depression really has no official definition, but if it did, it would be longer than three quarters. 4 quarters of GDP loss refers to a Depression. 3 quarters can refer to a country that is on the verge of a depression
Is it even possible that a quarter with heads 1972 on one side and heads 1994 on the other side could be legimate?
No, it's not possible that a double-headed quarter with two such diverse dates could be a legitimate Mint error. Dies are destroyed, if not worn out through usage, by the end of the year in which they are used. The coin in question is almost certainly a novelty or magician's coin.
What is a 1968 double stamped quarter eagle stamped over head worth?
Do you mean a quarter DOLLAR? Quarter eagles were not issued in 1968. And could you describe "double 'stamped"" ? (note the term is actually "struck" in coin jargon).
What is the value of an 1827 US quarter?
The US 1827 quarter is considered to be a key date in the series. If you have what appears to be a quarter with this date you should have it authenticated by a dealer or appraiser who is familiar with early US coins. If genuine it could be worth over $40,000, but be prepared to find out that you have a copy or a counterfeit.
How much is your us state quarter with heads on both sides worth?
It is worth nothing. You could try and take the two headed coin to a coin expert. But it is just a misprint.
How much for a 1997 quarter with double strikes on both sides like two heads and eagles laid over each other?
All indications are that, if this is a genuine flipover double strike, your coin could be worth over $1,000. I suggest you send large magnified pictures to Mike Byers, an error coin dealer, and see what he has to say about it. You can email him at mike@mikebyers.com Good luck!
Can a double headed quarter be real?
Not if it is a modern coin. Modern coin minting equipment has the obverse (heads) and the reverse (Tails) dies "keyed" meaning that you can't insert an obverse die where the reverse die goes and vice versa. Because of it, it is impossible to have what most people think of a double headed coin. It is however possible to have what is known as a "Brockage" error where a coin gets stuck to the die and then the coin acts as a die for the next coin. This would mean that a coin could have 2 heads, but one side would be a reverse image of the other side.
What is the value of a two-headed US quarter?
They are novelty coins, manufactured for the novelty or illusionist/magician's industry. They're made by altering two normal coins and gluing the pieces back together. If you use a strong magnifier, you can probably find a seam just inside the raised rim on one side of the coin, or around the edge. Technically, they don't have any value except when someone wants one and is willing to pay for it. You can buy them in novelty shops for about $8, or on eBay for $2-$3. Sometimes people will spend their two headed coin without remembering that it isn't a real quarter. One WikiAnswers user claims to have made to a coin collection place in Detroit who said they had a real one that is selling for $100,000, if it is authentic. Sadly, no two-headed quarter has ever been certified as an authentic mint error, though one two-tailed quarter has been certified as an authentic mint error. This means that, in theory, a two-headed quarter with the same date on both sides could be authenticated, but the chances are more in favor of it being the manufactured novelty/magician's coin. Unless it's a genuine mistake that occurred in the mint, it's probably worth a few bucks at most. Two-headed quarters are often sold in magic and gag gift shops. See the Related Links for more info about these coins.
Where can you find out how much a nickel that has been double stamped with the building across Roosevelts face and is also kind of oval instead of round and has edges like a quarter is worth?
It sounds like you may have a significant mint error coin. Sounds like a flip-over double strike, possibly on a dime or quarter planchet. If genuine, it could be worth several hundred dollars. I suggest you check out Mike Byers' website to see if he has anything like it there : http://mikebyers.com Then contact him and send him magnified pictures of both sides of the coin, AND a picture of the outside edge. Good Luck!

Are there any two headed coins from king George v period know to exist?
I don't believe there are any George V obverse, obverse mule coins known. Generally when it comes to modern milled coinage, it is impossible to fit the dies in a way that there could be 2 obverse dies put in the press. Most 2 headed coins are trick coins made from hollowing out one coin and putting in the other and there are very few genuine 2 headed coins known from any country in the modern era.
