GR58 Bedrock of the Community United States 11951 Posts	Posted 02/06/2017 2:51 pm I am curious what the weight loss of that coin is Report this Post to the Staff
nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15464 Posts	Posted 02/06/2017 3:40 pm That example has made a couple of ebay appearances ... seller trying to market it as a PO01 coin. It is not certifiable as such and worth only the value of the 90% silver it contains. Interesting curiosity if you are into such things ... but it is not worth anything to a lowball specialist.

jbuck Moderator United States 189052 Posts	Posted 02/06/2017 3:40 pm Wow, that is one serious low ball candidate if it only had part of the date.

Not Mint to Be Valued Member United States 469 Posts	Posted 02/06/2017 10:24 pm If it was a one year type commemorative it would be long gone and would be at PCGS by now. :) Report this Post to the Staff

nss-52 Moderator United States 54282 Posts	Posted 02/07/2017 1:42 pm Since the date is on the "back", I tried a special edit technique, but could bring out zero detail -- no ship, no lettering, no date. Report this Post to the Staff
jack jeckel Pillar of the Community United States 5208 Posts	Posted 02/07/2017 11:00 pm It is worth melt. Assuming by the the other comments it is being sold for more then melt. If I could get it for melt I would counter stamp a date on the reverse and add it to my already full pocket. I chose to preserve this 1892 as is.
