Bought this on ebay today. 21.75 delivered. It comes in a littlton Colorado sealed packet marked EF condition. Does the packet sealed have any value? Is it even close to being considered graded? Thanks   *** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. *** |

I like it. Looks like a nice original coin, no problem EF. Are you any relation to the infamous Edward Teach?  |

It looks good. It's actually from Littleton Coin Company in Littleton, NH. They are a reputable dealer.

They are a reputable dealer. But they rip off many people, especially inexperienced collectors, with their EXTREMELY high prices. |

IMO it's not really "reputable" if they are known for outrageously overpriced, rip-off items.

Littleton has established themselves as a legitimate dealer, however it does not take much to find prices lower than theirs. As for having it graded, it is not worth it.

Does the packet sealed have any value? No. The package has no additional value. Put the coin in a PVC free holder. |

And where would that be Stampvirgin? I don't seem to ever find bu Peace dollars for less than around $32. Are we talking internet or lcs? My lcs's uncirculated Peace dollars are $35. |

That meets my definition of "close to the same price," especially when compared to the price people like Littleton would charge for the same coin. So I guess it's a matter of perception.

You can find a 1922 Peace dollar for $23 in uncurculated condition. I just did on ebay. It was in a PCI holder saying MS-65 ( which it's not). But it is uncurculated. |

Littleton coins are fine, just buy them from someone else.  |
