Hey guys I'm new over here and I just wanted to see what you thought. I have a ton of coins but I'm really only into the walking liberty coins. I have these and I was wondering if they were worth selling and if so where. Peace dollars - 1923, 1927 Morgan dollars 1878,1890,1891,1892,1896,1921(2) Capped Bust half dollar 1807 I've been told that the capped bust is worth a lot especially considering you can see the text around the rim of the coin and the lines on the stars. Kind of lost here but it would be nice to get some money but I don't want to list them on ebay. |

to the Forum!! and  (We can't really give you a reasonable assessment without pictures so we can then determine a grade, then a possible value!) |

Should I post pictures of everything or just certain years?

Of whatever youd like an opinion on. Without knowing the condition of the coin all people can tell you is the melt value

I could use the 27 Peace. I'll send a PM.
Whoops, you don't have PMs turned on. Please send me a PM. Might want that 21 too if it's a D.

No PMs because you need enough posts first. Also not enough posts to sell.

Like nod mentioned once youve been here long enough you could probably unload most of those pretty fast on here if you decided to do so

Yea I belong to two forums and I understand the whole waiting to give newbies access to the for sale forum due to scammers but with paypal transaction the buyer is covered. I also have 2 and a half rolls of Mercury dimes and half a roll of each silver dimes and silver quarters. I know they are pretty much worth melt value(from what I hear at least). Should I wait and get posts and unload them here or is there a better option. I'm an ebay seller but I would get hit too hard on ebay fees with the coins. Since I can't quote anyone @nod the first morgan pictured doesn't have a mint mark but the second one is a D |

The 1807 half is nice grade wise, but unfortunately it looks like someone has scratched some very obvious graffiti on the reverse above the eagle that is going to drop the value of the coin tremendously. detail wise it looks like a VF-20 coin or so but with the graffiti value is probably closer to a Good to VG.

@condor I did look up the 1807 a little more in the past few days. I saw some with lines known as die cracks. Something like this http://www.jabpublish.com/1812CBH106.jpg maybe its not but I noticed it and I'm not sure how to tell if it is or not |

die crack
A raised, irregular line on a coin, ranging from very fine to very large, some quite irregular. These result when a hairline break occurs in a die. Sadly, what you have are not die cracks but were carved into the coin. The key word above is "raised" and if you look at the scratches under magnification you will see that they are not raised.  |
