You would first need to determine what you have -- whether it was struck on a defective planchet, or struck on a planchet intended for a different coin, or some kind of novelty item, or whatever. I suggest you check out the ANACS website to see if they will be attending any coin shows in your area, where you can take your coin and get a free first-hand professional appraisal : http://www.anacs.com/shows.html Once you know exactly what you have, then we can determine a value for it.
