Struck Aluminum Fragments
The NEW OFF Metal Error

 

A NEW exciting Off Metal has Surfaced on the Error scene!

In the past year or so, I've occasionally seen a new type of Off Metal error surface. These have been struck coins on Aluminum fragments, certified by PCGS, NGC & ANACS. They seem to come in a variety of sizes & shapes, from a small fragment the size of a small fingernail, to the size of a full coin.

They have been seen on cents, nickels, dimes, older quarters & State quarters, and Sacagawea Dollars.

No one seems to know where they have come from or are actually made of! We've spoken to US Mint personnel are they were even a little puzzled! But one thing is for sure, they ARE Mint made.

What I believe has happened is that a brand NEW type of Off Metal has surfaced and very few persons have taken notice. This New type of Off Metal coin will be highly sort after and prized in a short period of time, as I believe they will be of limited quantities. What should you look for? Look for the Best eye appealing example, possibly with a date, the larger the better. I suspect State Quarters and Sacagawea dollar examples will be highly sort after as these coins in Off Metals command HIGH prices..

Oh yeah! Prices.. What we have seen so far on these struck Aluminum Off Metals are: a cent selling for $1,500., a dime for $1,800., State Quarters selling from $3,500-4,500. And Sacagawea dollars about the same (IF you can find One!). Expensive! Yes, but compared to any Off Metal on a State Quarter or Sacagawea Dollar these are still relatively CHEAP!! Off Metals on the last two mentioned coins can cost $6-7,000., and are still on the rise.. Can we expect the prices to rise on this NEW Off Metal? Yes, As I believe examples will be in very limited supply for a very brief period of time. In just a short few years, maybe two! These prices could double or triple and by then you may have wished you had purchased one earlier.

More to come of this new & exciting Off Metal Error as things develop.

PS:) We are buying these Aluminum Off Metals if you have any for sale..
