Rare Coin Is Mint's Mistake PHILADELPHIA W - Put enough silver for a quarter in the U.S. Mint's SO-ccnt machine and what have you got? One of the rarest, and most valuable, coins in the world, says coin dealer George Creed. Creed found the coin in a bag of half-dollars he got from the Philadelphia mint. It has 50-cent piece markings, is smaller than a half-dollar and thinner than a dime. The mint offered the too- little-silver-too-much-machine ex planation. Creed said the market value of the coin can be compared with that of a unique British Gui- na stamp issued in 1865 about $50,000.
