When I try and re-install macOS Sierra I'm getting an error message that "the app store download could not start because it has already been downloaded too many times". I had previously tried updating the OS to the new operating system and then had major issues and had to erase the drive. Any help is appreciated.

I understand that you're trying to reinstall Sierra but getting a message that the App Store download could not start because it has already been downloaded too many times. You've come to the right place for help.
Restart your Mac and reinstall the macOS using Internet Recovery.
Let me know if that resolved the issue for you.
Have a great day!
