It is pretty hard to evaluate anything with these pics. Thx.

Jimbo48 Valued Member United States 250 Posts	Posted 02/16/2026 9:11 pm This a nice coin. Photos are blurred but it looks like a small date, small fraction with stems. If the coin grades XF it could value four figures. It is small date based on the date position and the shape of the 1 and the 3 not touching the bust. Otherwise you would have a five figure coin if it was as you described. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 94636 Posts	Posted 02/17/2026 8:01 pm to CCF. I'll reserve comment on authenticity, as I'm not all that familiar with these coins. However, a clear, in-focus image would help in determining if it is a DDO or not. (I'm leaning on NO at the moment.) Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.
