0xDA71D Pillar of the Community United States 1215 Posts	Posted 10/16/2014 10:33 pm I bought this coin for what I believe to be an unusually low price. I fear it is a non silver restrike rather than a .833 restrike that it could also be. Can you authenticate and perhaps give me grade/variety/price? Thanks http://www.ebay.com/itm/29126727570...RK:MEBIDX:IT Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16810 Posts	Posted 10/16/2014 10:51 pm It looks like toned silver to me; it appears to be the common 1960s-80s Vienna mint variety, Hafner 61a. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
0xDA71D Pillar of the Community United States 1215 Posts	Posted 10/16/2014 10:54 pm Thank you, Sap! I guess I got off on an ok deal then, given this coin is not very rare. Report this Post to the Staff
Medieval Pillar of the Community 3772 Posts	Posted 10/16/2014 10:57 pm Agree with 'Sap' - to check: you should be able to hear the 'ring' of a silver coin. Nothing rare about those coins though, quite the opposite. Report this Post to the Staff
0xDA71D Pillar of the Community United States 1215 Posts	Posted 10/16/2014 10:59 pm Thanks, medieval. I have not received the coin yet. IF it weighs less than 28 grams, I will return it. Do you think it is a good deal at $10? Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 10/17/2014 11:21 am Depending on the shipping cost, yes. It is probably real, and contains .75 oz of silver. Report this Post to the Staff
