What your friend has is commonly known as a “Magician’s Coin”, and was not stamped by the US Mint. The way coin presses are designed, two identical side dies won’t fit into the press. A few years ago, this type of coin would have been worth around $10.00, but today, they are being mass produced, even the penny, nickel and dime. Some recent auction prices were in the range of $1.00 to $3.00, and these type of coins are not as desirable as they once were.

A friend of mine found a quarter in her deceased grandmother’s jewelry box(no year on it) that had the “tails” printed on both sides. I heard about the US Mint stamping some coins wrong and am wondering what the value may be.

The mint mark, if any, is below the eagle and above the 2 1/2 D. If your gold coin is in circulated grade, and is considered very fine, it’s value is $165 up to $300. If the coin is in the grade of almost uncirculated, and is mint state-63, it’s value rises considerably. The mint marks are very relevant and can add a lot more value to your gold coin. These prices are about what a dealer would pay. PCGS prices are for coins only graded by them and are retail value. You should get all pertinent information on this coin and you can check it out at the auctions on this site or others. Hope this helps.

My grandfather has been giving some of his collections to his children and grandchildren, and my father was given an 1855 Quarter Eagle in pretty good condition. It didn’t take me long to figure out what it was when I saw it, but I haven’t been able to find any site that can give me the approximate value. He’s not going to sell it, but we’re both curious as to how much it might be worth.

Also, I didn’t get a chance to check what mint it was from, but I just assume that it was from the most common mint (unmarked).
