Coinfox6 New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 02/01/2020 9:35 pm Guys here's the two coins I got, 1909 "D" mintmarks. Both weigh 8.35 grams. One measures .845" in diameter and one measures .843" (21.463 mm and 21.4122 mm) both thicknesses measure .057" (1.448mm). I'm trying to ascertain if these are authentic, I just received them and got a little spooked when I read how well some of these were faked even with real gold. Couple things that make me nervous are the mint marks (both D) and lack of detail in some places. Let me know what you think. Edited by Coinfox6 02/01/2020 10:10 pm Report this Post to the Staff

These are circulated common dates that are valued on their gold content. Buy certified if you are inexperienced. Circulated pieces such as this one often sell for melt value. https://www.PCGS.com/auctionprices/...186276248208 ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
