The coin is too worn out with devices and MM flattened, I don't believe it would be possible to draw any reasonable conclusion on this one!
The MM is flattened on this coin even in MS. My attribution is correct. I'm questioning whether it warrants any premium since the coin is so worn.

| I just logged in for the first time in about three years. I took a long break from my coin collecting, but I feel the obsession coming back quickly. This is still one of my favorite coins because it was found in a "by the pound" lot of foreign coins. |

| I have come into possession of many sealed, uncirculated boxes of Presidential dollar coins (J. Adams and Jefferson). I don't want to mess with eBay, but I don't know how to go about locating a reputable dealer who might be interested in making a deal. Anyone have any recommendations? |

I got it. I paid $50, which is on the high side based on recent eBay sales, but the condition is pretty good and I was really intrigued by the inscription. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fr...045573.m1684
The inscription appears to be an obituary for a lady named Mary Stevens. I tried my best to transcribe the text, but I know I have about half of it wrong. I also think the writer probably meant to use "1817" and "1861" as the dates...but even using the 1861 date, Mary's date of death would pre-date the note. If anybody else wants to take a stab at transcribing this, I'd love the input!
Here's what I came up with...
Here is committed to the Earth the mortal pass of Mrs. Mary Stevens the wife of Dr. Rand Stevens she was born Oct. 25th 1717 live in sweetest conjugal love with her friend and lender husband but lived him 9 months and him went joyfully after Jan. 12th 1761 expressing her great desire to go home to her father's house Christian graces were exemplary in a kind lender week and quiet efficient and a very unoffensive life she died in the 44th year of her age

| The 1981 SBA is a good find. I only average about one out of every 3-4 boxes. I think there will come a time that they will be worth a nice premium. |

All proof coins
1981 SBA
2002-2008 SAC
All Presidential since 2012
SAC coins minted in 2013, 2014, and 2015 are very low mint, so even though they are circulated, I keep all of them. |

I keep all 1979 near date SBA (average 2-3 per box), all 1981 SBA (NIFC), and all proof SBA.
For SACs, I keep all 2002-2008 (NIFC), all 2012-current (low mintage), all proofs, and I check the 2000P for speared eagle and Cheerios. I also pull out 2001 experimental rinse coins.
For Presidentials, I check the 2007 coins for missing writing on the rims. I keep proofs and NIFC. Every president since 2012 (4 presidents issued each year) is NIFC.
