What is the value of a mis-struck 1984 US nickel?

Answer 1

Answer

The value of any coin is most dependant on it's rarity. Mis-struck coins are exceptionally rare and, therefore, exceptionally valuble. I can't give an exact number, it's worth what someone will pay for it. A few years ago, brand new, mis-struck state quarter sold for over $500,000. I would take the coin to a coin dealer or an auction house like Sotheby's.

Reality Sets In

Mis-struck can mean alot of things -- from a coin that is slightly off-center, a coin that is missing letters due to a foreign substance in the die, or other common striking errors that are not worth much -- to rare doubled die errors, off-metal errors, and other rarities worth hundreds or thousands of dollars.

Without knowing exactly what kind of "mis-struck" error you have, it would only be blowing air up your skirt to give you an estimated value.

Answer 2

Without knowing how it was mis-struck it's not possible to assign a value. Coins are subject to many different possible minting errors and their values vary a lot.

Please post a new, separate question with a description of the error.

Answer 3

All error coins need to be seen. Take to a coin collector or dealer.

Also note that coins are minted or struck. Printing involves paper and ink or similar materials.

Answer 4

Without seeing the coin it's not possible to estimate a value. Error coins normally should be examined in person by a dealer or appraiser who's familiar with errors.

Answer 5

Not enough information. It would depend on how major the error is. The best chance is to take it to a coin dealer and ask him/her.

Answer 6

More information is needed. Please check your coin again and post a new, separate question with a better description of the suspected mis-strike.
