What I still find interesting concerning both examples shown here remains a mystery. I see no record "as of yet" that the Denver mint was producing foreign coinage on or around this year and weight. Philadelphia and San Francisco yes.

More food for thought. Instead of it being struck on the wrong (or foreign) planchet, might it be blanks were punch from the wrong stock and struck at the Denver mint? If the composition of 93% Silver and 7% Copper is present. We may need to look outside the box. Thanks, Doug.

Weighed on new scale @ 2.438g. Interesting thought on the wrong stock. How often (if ever) does that happen?

At 2.4 gr seem to be silver. This event it is a rare event. My suggestion it to go with PCGS and CAC in order to maximize the profit. I do not others how they do the grading, but me I never go with dealers. The only intermediary for me always was Heritage, Sotheby's or Christie's.

Some Local coin shops have gotten permission to help send in coins for grading to NGC and PCGS, just make sure that the LCS has been accredited to do so.
