He thinks one of them may be brass (witch it's not). The brass type is very expensive and rare, he doesn't have one. Make him an offer of $5-$10 and see what he says.

$5-$10 is still over priced

ty for the replies, I didn't think either one looked brass, I also looked in coins canada and didn't see how a price like that could make sense. Cheers and ty.

Even the experts have a hard time telling if a coin is brass most put it under the machine that SPP has use of, so it makes me wonder how they know that its a brass coin and make a claim for such a high premium for it.

Perhaps there's times when a person hopes to catch someone sleeping on a deal, cut the price in half and realize a great fortune in hand. I would send my coin to SPP before even trying to sell it to be sure it was brass lol.

Ugh.... that's highway robbery. Too bad for that guy that anyone with that kind of money to spend on coins will know better.
