it's probably worth more than 5c, but I doubt it's a whole lot. If you really want to try to sell it, either have it graded (as an error coin of course), and then put it up on ebay or take it to a local shop.

Again though, probably not going to be worth a whole lot.

I thought error coins were almost impossible to find now from a new screening process the US mint has?

Significant, no. But it's worth more than you paid for it. I would guess $10-30.

There isn't 2 parts. They are connected it happens when the coin is off center when they are getting stamped. So in reality he actually has part of one coin and part of another. Notice how it has 2 dates on it..

That's a pretty rare error; the 1995 coin had to get fed in with blanks and get misstruck with a 1999 die. A 1995 getting fed back in and struck with another 1995 imprint is rare itself.

Unfortunately, it's not something as valuable as say, a morgan dollar(which would be worth a fortune).. nonetheless, even tho it's a jefferson that's a pretty fucking rare error. Get it appraised.

Extremely rare find.  I bet you it's worth a lot more than what you'd expect too. :smile:

It's a double strike, but not a typical one.. if both dates were 1999, I'd say ok $50 max.

http://www.coinworld.com/NewCollector/Errors/Striking.asp

The fact that it was struck with two different dies - maybe from 2 different mints [edit: didn't see both mintmarks, they're both Philadelphia] - makes it an extremely rare find.

I'd probably keep it.

I didn't notice the dates either.  The best thing to do would be to get it graded by a professional company, like  NGC.  They do have a 5 coin minimum for sending in modern coins.  Good Luck  :smile:
