I'm pretty sure that it isn't from normal wear and tear as the obverse is in almost immaculate condition. How much of a price would this go for if I put it on ebay. here are some pics: Report this Post to the Staff

47P7 Pillar of the Community Canada 1505 Posts	Posted 01/01/2015 12:19 pm Silverdollar you might get a few dollars over the going rate. However, 1859s have a funny way. If centsles sells them and says it is a MS coin they get 5-10 times more as u and I would. I have sold EF-low 9s for $ 5 and similar coins in VF for $ 10... one never knows. The key is good images if you list it: show the date and any differences very sharp and clear. I have found that Haxby or Turner numbers in the first Title only confuse a possible buyer. they are ok in the description. Report this Post to the Staff

I lost all my stuff so I am guessing Vancouver Island? Plus I could not remember my password so I re did everything, hence the name change. Cheers Don Vickies cents and GB Farthings nut.

nybird Valued Member United States 459 Posts	Posted 01/01/2015 2:29 pm I agree with fourmack. Haxby PC59-31 obverse 3 paired with reverse E5. Notice the die crack on the A of REGINA. The missing letter tops are from die clogs. http://www.vickycents.com/obv-o3.html PM me if interested in parting with it. ed Report this Post to the Staff
