Below are some coins that are often ignored by your average person despite being capable of bringing in real money, should a hobbyist notice it and offer it for sale to people interested in rare coin collecting.

• D/horizontal D 5 cent piece from 1942

This Jefferson coin is not the same Wartime silver alloy, but rather it is the previous variety which is a copper and nickel alloy. More than 14 million coins were minted, which was a fairly large mint for the time period. The coins struck from the die with the error are relatively elusive, but still possible to be found. The value for these coins is between $30 dollars and $500 dollars depending on the quality of the coin.

• The 1955 Double-Die Cent

This is perhaps the kind of the doubled dies, as it has spectacular doubling. They were originally discovered in coin rolls. Nearly the entire output from the improperly struck die managed to reach to circulation, so you will really never known when one of these true beauties is going to show up. The value for these coins is between $500 dollars and $1,500 dollars depending on the quality of the coin.
