Pacificoin thank you. I agree here is a picture of another one. I have a box full of these. take a look at this coin. why I ask is if there is o value to these at all. I will just roll them up and turn them into the bank. there is probably 200 hundred dollars worth in this box. they range from 1898 to 1930. most of them you can Barrie make out the date. what would you do with them thank you. I am going to get ridge of a lot of this stuff. Pacificoin I know the stuff dad purchased from you is in a lot better shape. I will deal with that stuff later. thank you so much for your time. see the top coin looks so different. I can see the copper. but if that dont make a difference in the coins value. ok I will get ridge of it to as well. I got it very cheap so it dont matter to me

Rocky remember to NOT take to the bank any 1967 or earlier halves they are at least Silver value . Give or take at least 6.50 a coin. The pre 1920 stuff is a touch higher.
If in doubt on any of your coins get some numismatic help from a local dealer(s) . Do not short change yourself . Dispose of nothing until you know. Cheers.

Yeah please don't take these to the bank even if they don't have dates and are beat to all heck just sell them for silver 10-13 times face value depending on how much weight has been lost. Anyone buying for silver would just weigh the lot and pay according to spot and percentage agreed upon. Even if they are significant chunks missing from the coin silver weight is silver weight. If it were me and they were all crappy like that I'd just try to sell them on forums here or something like that, no sense trying ebay as you will lose alot to fees and no one should want to pay a premium if they are crap, there are usually plenty of local places willing to pay something for silver.

I don't see where anybody asked, so I will - what on earth makes you think it's copper? Your pic of the obverse looks like well-worn silver to me, and maybe like a few I pulled out of the clean-out pit in a recycled newspaper paper mill I worked at in college. In almost a hundred years who knows what that coin has been through. Copper it isn't.
