    Ok so I've found a wavy 20c piece in my change and I'm after some info on its condition and value. Also how do I go about grading it as it is in better condition than any of the coins I could find on eBay and the prices seem so high.
    Any info or help would be appreciated.
    Thanks. DSCN1064_1.jpg DSCN1070_1.jpg

    Its only Fine. Throw it up on ebay for $450 and see how you go. It only cost you 20 cents

    Nice find.
    How rare are these errors anyway? had a look through my 20 cents and found a good few from 1966, but all non wavy.
    Does anyone know?

    You can do a Google Search about the rarity and why they're wavy but I couldn't find any good info about what to do once you find one, except for put it on ebay. I only had one 1966 in my change and luckily it was this one.

    EBay has them for anywhere from $400 - $1500 so it's hard to know what they're really worth.

    Numismatic auctions like Roxbury's...they will give you an estimate.

    They'll ask you to put it as consignment for sure
