Imthealphaomega Pillar of the Community United States 3210 Posts	Posted 03/13/2015 6:54 pm I am looking to buy the set..Seller wants $7,700.00 for all of it, I am looking to resell to make some $, or may keep as an investment. Here are the photos of each coin. I put guessed grades based off photograde since I don't buy gold coins. The 1st two coins aren't great but the rest are good clarity wise... 1855 $1 (Guessed grade AU55) 1851 $1 (Guessed grade AU50) 1861 $1 (Guessed grade MS62) 1889 $2.5 (Guessed grade MS60) 1874 $3 (Guessed grade AU-55) 1912 $2.5 (Guessed Grade MS63) 1911 $5 (Guessed grade MS62) 1908-D $10 Motto (Guessed grade AU-50) 1873 $20 (Guessed grade EF40, maybe cleaned) 1911-D $20 (Guessed grade MS62) 1882 $10 (Guessed grade AU-50) 1885-S $5 (Guessed grade MS61) Report this Post to the Staff

Mikeymus Valued Member United States 110 Posts	Posted 03/13/2015 10:13 pm Either the 1854 is circulated or it might be a strike through error. And the 1874 $3 coin looks to be a light strike on the back. Report this Post to the Staff
Groszy Pillar of the Community United States 589 Posts	Posted 03/13/2015 10:17 pm The 1851 $1 looks like it could be ungradeable to me. Slight hole punched by the R in Dollar...could present problems if you tried to get it slabbed. The 1882 $10 and 1885-S $5 don't have the proper luster that I think they should in areas, and so I'm leaning towards cleaned on them also. Could just be bad lighting, though.

Imthealphaomega Pillar of the Community United States 3210 Posts	Posted 03/13/2015 11:57 pm So in all your opinions is it worth spending the 7,700.00 bucks on it to either sell for a quick profit or to keep? I normally deal in silver, this is the first time I am considering buying gold. This is my fathers $, because he wants to diversify assets and I am trying to convince him to buy. Any thoughts?

BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 03/14/2015 02:15 am I'm seeing about $4500 in gold there if my calculations are correct. The sub-$5 denominated pieces bring large premiums to melt if genuine and undamaged so assuming all are genuine then $7,000 sounds fair but not cheap. I would want top tier encapsulated, problem-free pieces to pay that kind of money. I did not check every date/mm combo and am assuming none are key dates. Good luck!

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36839 Posts	Posted 03/14/2015 11:38 am The only MS coin I see is the 1911-D $20. All others are circ., EF and AU. At $7700, I think you would have a hard time getting your money back on these at this time. Edited by IndianGoldEagle 03/14/2015 11:40 am Report this Post to the Staff
