The USA contraversial coin Nickel Barber V cent coin 1913 at the Dallas auction sale 3.500.000 US$ , this coin became the highest value coins in the world. The first type this coins without CENTS were plated with gold and became $ 5 new coins, that is why they change the new coin with CENTS below V . This common coin became veryrare when the employee of the mint coin made proof coin nly five item with date 1913 (Complete story read in this blog “The highest value coin in the world”.
When found this second type Nickels Barber V cent , I didn’t understand that this coins was the US contarversial coins and look carefully this coin only 1912 the last year official mint coins, and I only thingking oh so pity why not 1913 more high vanlue that time in 1972 catalogue only 200.000 $US value. When read the texas Auction value January 2010 I am very interesting about this coin, I look at my collection 1912 and seeking almost two days and at the end I found at my old album storage, now I put the illustration of that common type coins in my blog , please if the collectors have the photo of the highest value of this contaversial coin proof 1913 please show us because million collectors never seen that coins including me. thankyou for your helping from Dr Iwan S. @copyright Dr Iwan S.2010.
Pak Dr. Irwan,
Baru2 ini saya terima satu coin kurang lebih 39mm bulat. Di muka ada gambar Ir. Soekarno dengan tahun1818 di bawah nya.
Di muka belakang ada tulisan macam jawi sekeliling nya dan saya tak pasti apa itu.
Warna nya ke emasan, macam gold-plated.
Harap bole dapat pendapat Pak Dr. Irwan.
Salamm.
