Those who love coins, know that there is a story behind every single one they have in their collection.
In 1975, the San Francisco Mint issued a set of proof coins that were sold for just $7 each. However, six of these sets contained a minting error: two of the dimes were missing the "S" mint mark.
These rare coins were later purchased by a family, and two sisters eventually inherited one of the coins, according to AP News. The sisters have chosen to remain anonymous.
The dime is now expected to sell for a staggering price at an auction in late October. Experts believe it could be worth $500,000.
So, if you have a coin collection that you recently inherited, be sure to look for any minting errors that could make them incredibly valuable.
The absence of the "S" mint mark on this dime makes it highly valuable. However, this is not the only factor contributing to its worth.
The fact that the coins were sold for $7 each and are now worth $500,000 is also significant. This astronomical increase in value is sure to attract attention and drive up the bidding price.
We will have to wait and see the final value this dime reaches in the late October auction. If you have enough money to bid, get ready for this upcoming purchase.
