What is the weight of the coin? It should be close to 26.95 grams.

It's beat up, but not heavily worn, so should be full weight within 0.1 gram. The expected B mintmark in the trident is not there, but this isn't a major cause for concern.

I bought one 20 years ago for melt, but the price has gone up considerably - maybe $200 value for this one if genuine. It's a common date.

Hello everyone!

I finally weighted the coin, it's 26.96 so I think it's safe to say it's legit

I'm thinking of putting it on ebay, what do you think?

As I said over a month ago, maybe a couple hundred dollars. If you are selling it, ebay seems reasonable.

Couple hundred, does this mean it can get to 500-600?

Couple hundred = $200. But with an item like this without a large collector base, it may take awhile to wait for the right buyer.

I think the coin looks cleaned/overdipped to me.

Maybe, I haven't cleaned it, that's the way I got it.

Does this reduce its value?
