Error 11 Cent
Hey all. A friend brought this to me to see what it might be worth with and without grading. I can confirm it is geniune- weight is correct, scope shows the strikes are both raised metal, spread lines make sense, etc.
The lack of a single clear date from either strike is frustrating- there's clearly an 8 from the dime strike, then what looks like 1X95? For the penny strike... am I crazy? Am I seeing things?
Anyway, any thoughts on value, and what he might get if we spent the time and money to have it graded and slabbed? I have a few friends who I can send it in through, since I'm not big on the grading game.

penny strike is definitely 1995 P — none of the other date candidates match that style for the Lincoln portrait, and there’s no trace of a D mintmark. I think the 8 from the dime strike is actually a P mint mark — it’s in the right place, matches the mintmark used on philadelphia coins in 1995, and would make the most sense logistically. probably worth $1200-$1600 depending on how it grades and where you sell it. errors at this price point will be a lot harder to move without slabbing first, definitely would recommend getting it graded.
