bradsbrewer Valued Member United States 89 Posts	Posted 05/23/2013 11:05 pm Okay guys, I went to a friend of mine's grandmother's house tonight to help her figure out what all her coins were worth. Her husband recently died and she had no clue what was worth what. I generally have no problem giving at least general information on coin value based on the approx grade. However, tonight I came across a coin that I'm not too sure about and need your help... appears to be a Northern Civil War Token. Here's a picture of a coin just like it, I'm using this because it's clear and I didn't have my camera with me earlier: So if you have any info (value, etc) I will get it to her. Also, she has some pretty sweet older Morgans, Bust halves, etc, and since I helped her, she said she'd hold on them until I got some money to buy them! And for helping her tonight, she gave me a sweet GW commemorative half! Report this Post to the Staff

Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 05/23/2013 11:28 pm only a guess: to a collector, maybe $10-$20 because of the wear (the pictured coin only) Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 05/24/2013 10:16 am He says that that is a picture of one "just like" his. It is not a picture of the actual coin. His coin could be 178/267 or it could be 178/266 which is a little better. Since we can't see the actual coin we also can't judge condition or check for any damage. For those reasons you really can't give anything other than a very general value range. Report this Post to the Staff
Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 05/24/2013 6:59 pm good point Conder101. My estimate is only for the exact coin show, yours may be different in quality and/or value. Report this Post to the Staff
