BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 06/23/2022 7:05 pm Does it actually weigh 12.6 grams? They are 90% silver and typically weigh 12.5 grams. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95886 Posts	Posted 06/23/2022 8:05 pm Well, you tube is correct about one thing - some are very valuable (but only about 20 of them in the whole world - and ALL of them are accounted for) too bad about the finger print on the obverse.

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 06/23/2022 10:17 pm UTube has ruined many fine minds, don't be one of them. Stick to CCF, we won't steer you wrong. Your half appears to be a normal silver 64. to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/24/2022 11:25 am The mark on the tail feather is damage from the reeds from another coin. So that area is not a plus for the coin. The coin is still worth silver melt. 20 Report this Post to the Staff
gsp193 Pillar of the Community United States 975 Posts	Posted 06/24/2022 12:58 pm heres the link to the coincommunityfamily youtube site. I personally like youtube, there is alot of good information like this sites youtube channel. But as with anything there is alot of mis-information found on youtube. I found researching all the avenues available is beneficial and this site here is great and all the experts here are more than helpful. But I have to say there are some really good youtube channels. Just my thoughts. https://youtube.com/c/CoincommunityFamily Report this Post to the Staff
