Don't feel bad, photography isn't my strong suit, either. If the 1874 is in G, you maybe have $10-15, there. The others, anywhere from $1-5, deduct for any damage. That's how they look to these old eyes. BTW, Happy Birthday, yesterday. That's a nice birthday present, you got a nice variety of them. PS: Can I borrow your dad the next time I go to the flea market?  |

sounds like you got a good deal--now put them in an album Doing that as we speak. Just needed to catalogue and find the value. Quote:

Much better than I would have imagined for flea market bargain box coins. $10 is a rip!

The 1874 could be a G6--easily worth $15  |

i'd like to see a close up of the 1874 - I suspect that might be in a slightly better condition than just Good.

Slap the 74 on ebay. Start at .99 cents and watch what happens. Oregon coin geek.....*** GO BEAVS ! ! ! ***

Here is a close up on the 1874 and 1899. The 1899 is the coin, that I think, is in the best condition (even taking in to consideration the slight stain). 1874 Front:  1874 Back:  1874 Front Tilt:  1874 Back Tilt:  1899 Front:  1899 Back:  1899 Front Tilt:  1899 Back Tilt:  Whatcha think? |

Oh I like that 1899, nice strike on that one. You might be able to clean it up a bit with some Verdi-Care.

the 74 is attractive & problem free - should go for solid G6 money. the 99 has problems as stated by 52Raymo.

Hi, Delareece, Nice pick up for $10.00. Yeah, like the others said, the 1874 is probably your best coin, looks G6 about right, and Happy Birthday also.   |

Thanks for the birthday wishes! Quote:

I'm fairly young (turned 20), so I still have many years ahead to make my collection grow. I already have, I'd estimate, over 1000 coins from around the world (not all are catalogued yet, however). |

Decent start to a IHC collection, and your Dad got a good buy, The 1899 looks VF-35 to me, the 1874 looks VG-8. |
