2004-D Wisconsin State Quarter (With an Extra Leaf)

Variety of experts disagree about the cause and long-term value of this coin, but I’ve included here because it is very findable in pocket change and worth hundreds of dollars right now.

What To Look For: There is a defect on the die that makes it appear as if there’s an extra leaf on the lower left-hand side of the ear of corn on the reverse. The leaf is very clear. Known in two varieties, the High Leaf and the Low Leaf type.

Approximate Value: $200-$300 in MS-60 or so.

1969-S Lincoln Cent With a Doubled Die Obverse
This coin is quite rare. The early specimens of this coin were confiscated by the Secret Service until the U.S. Mint admitted they were genuine. Counterfeits abound, but usually have the wrong mint mark.

What to look for: Look for clear doubling of the entire front (obverse)(”heads” side) except for the mint mark. If the mint mark is doubled, it is probably a case of strike doubling, rather than a doubled die, which isn’t worth much. (Mint marks were punched in the dies separately in 1969, after the doubled die itself had already been made.)

Approximate Value: Around $35,000 or more in EF-40 or so.

Morgan, In the eagles tail the feathers numbered eight, but the dies were modified to show just seven feathers. During the second week of production of the new silver dollar Director Linderman came to Philadelphia to meet with the officials and engravers Barber and Morgan. He directed that new hubs be made for the obverse and reverse to slightly reduce the relief of the designs, to facilitate coinage

The Morgan coin had 28 years old history of coinage. During this time it’s design was changed for 5 different mints. Named by its designer George T. Morgan it has the side view of Miss Liberty’s head on the obverse and the eagle with outspreaded wings on the reverse. The eagle holds in his talons an olive branch and a bundle of arrows. Designer put his initials and mintmarks on the both sides: under the Miss Liberty’s neck and under the ribbon on reverse. Depending on the place of coinage coins have 5 different mints on reverse: Philadelphia Mint (P), Carson City Mint (CC), Denver (D), New Orleans (O), and San-Francisco Mint (S).

King of Morgan Silver Dollar

Morgan 1895 – Morgan has 3 rare types. They are: 1889-CC; 1893-S and 1895 Proof. Morgan 1895 is the rarest and has the perfect appearance. According to Red Book 2009 it worth 1,000000 $. But it won such a glory with the help of mystery. The U.S. Mint records show that there were minted 12,000 Morgan’s in 1985 and 880 Proofs. Nowadays there are only 80 Proofs and no one of 12,000 coins in the world. A real mystery? Nobody knows where they are. The proofs to be so valuable that it keeps numismatic world dreaming about discovering another one hoard with Morgan’s if one still exists.

Morgan Dollars were mostly ignored by coin collectors for decades after the coin’s termination. It wasn’t until the early 1960’s that collecting Morgan Dollars started to take off. At this point in time silver was worth around $1.29 per ounce. At this price, the silver metal value of a silver dollar was worth a dollar. Many banks still had bags and rolls of silver dollars and all you needed to do was go down to the bank and ask for them.

In 1960 the silver had an upsurge of price and there was the profit drawing out of it by redeeming silver certificates for Morgan dollar. Some did that until Government went against it but it had steady effect – the interest of public to Morgan dollar had risen.
