1 Cent (2 Cent Error) Italia Mole Antonelliano

9 posts • viewed 131 times

Greetings, i am in possession of this coin for few years now. I'm from Slovenia and i am unsure as on how to evaluate the coin nor where or how to sell it. Any information would be much appreciated!

Most likely a manipulated coin where somebody hollowed out part of a 2 euro cent coin and inserted a 1 euro cent coin.  Hard to tell from a picture of a picture. Please post new pictures of the coin.

Hope its's visible enough - my father found this coin in his wallet after reading the news post about the value. Its's 1 cent from the front sadly no front pic - shall upload one tomorrow 

The other side is the interesting side.

Please show near another 1 cent

Assuming this is a picture of a picture of the coin I think it says it all.

 

              

 Yes. The other side of the 1 Cent (maybe also from Italy, perhaps) is 

split from 1.67mm to leave maybe 0.8mm thickness. 

 Then the 2 Cent has the back drilled out to fit the 16.25mm 1 Cent coin 

in, and to a depth of that 0.8mm - then the thin coin glued in. 

   [something like that] 

Token collector [1600-1899] with some coins

Like that except the rim of the 1 cent coin was probably also removed. A picture of the actual coin would help.  

It's a picture of a picture on a paper page with folds and everything. Please give us images of the REAL piece of alloy. Anyway, it's a manipulated set of a 2 cent with an inserted 1 cent coin, so it has no numismatic value…..
