Uncover the hidden gems lying in plain sight - rare coins with soaring values.
A nickel from 1916 fetched a staggering $138,000 at a recent auction.
Age and design contribute to its rarity - featuring a Native American and buffalo.
The key value driver? A "doubling" error on the date, a minting anomaly.
Such errors are highly prized by collectors, making the coin an instant treasure.
The coin's remarkable condition further amplified its appeal and worth.
"Soft, delightful luster beneath rich patina," described the auctioneer.
A humbling reminder: always inspect your loose change - riches may be hiding in plain sight.
