Kopper Ken Pillar of the Community United States 3402 Posts	Posted 02/24/2018 5:57 pm Isn't the "D" a little too high? If it was silver soldered on and the aged, acetone wouldn't have removed the MM. KK Report this Post to the Staff
Debrajc Pillar of the Community United States 4211 Posts	Posted 02/24/2018 7:02 pm Looks a lot like one I had a long time ago. NGC slabbed AG-03 but the mint mark looks a lot like I remember on the one I had. I vote for sending it in to get it authenticated. Report this Post to the Staff

coin197 Pillar of the Community United States 1963 Posts	Posted 02/24/2018 11:18 pm I took it to my coin dealer, who is a PCGS and ANACS submission center. He said he is almost sure it is genuine and will likely grade F Details. I went ahead and sent it off to ANACS for $10. I will get it back in a week or 2. If it is real, my customer will be thrilled!

macmercury Pillar of the Community United States 5832 Posts	Posted 02/25/2018 10:38 am AG3 is around $400 retail, so I think F-detail should be around $250 range, still a good pick up from circulation. Report this Post to the Staff

peter1234 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 1351 Posts	Posted 03/05/2018 6:37 pm Amazing how you folk value modern culls so highly. Everything post 1783 is modern. Actually to pull a coin worth a few £ out of circulation is pretty cool. Report this Post to the Staff
