Good for them. I hope they get a million bucks.
Hey sisters, can you spare a dime?
People are so weird, paying half a million dollars for an old dime because it’s missing an ‘S.’
How does this happen? I can understand double stamps, wrong material because of left over blanks from different coin. But missing the s? That would require the stamp to be wrong, and all of the coins would have that mistake?
Now when they inherited it, they didn’t know what it was worth. I bet the IRS comes after them for back owed inheritance taxes in addition to taxes on what they get when they sell it.
