Information on the 1846-O $10 http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/8595On that link above, Doug Winter writes that the 1846/5-O variety was proven not to be an overdate. Based on the mint mark location, I'm going to say this is Variety 4. Quite the score for a yard sale. |

It is getting to be that time of the year again. I may have to go looking through some garage sales to see if I can find anything worth bringing home. Great score and  to CCF |

I knew it was a good deal on the gold. Didn't know if it'd be worth more as a collectable. I did look up the $10 coin and couldn't find much on it.

The gold content alone is worth well over $1200, and the numismatic value of those pre-1933 gold coins adds some value. That would had been a steal for almost twice what you paid. Excellent find!

If the 1911 half eagle has a "D" for a mintmark, you definitely hit a grand slam. Most likely, it will be "S".

I would like to see better close ups of the 1911 for sure.
Please post if you can.
Maybe post a new thread under the classic grading section.
Thanks

The mint mark on the 1911$5 is a little hard to read but it looks like it say "S". I will try to post better quality pictures.

To say I'm jealous would be the understatement of the century. Well done! (And to CCF!) |

...After reading this post, I'm sure many of the CC members have made plans to go find some garage sales over the next few weekends...  |
