Do you guys have any idea how much each of these coins cost?  The year on it is 1880  The year is 1924  And this one is 1885 If you can ball park it for bad condition and good condition it will be great. Edited to remove email address. lets keep it in the forum and please read the rules

Cost? Do you mean "How much might these coins be worth?
No. Sorry. I can't even discern the date on the Morgan; your pix are too pixelated and out of focus . Perhaps you'd do better just to slap them on a scanner and obtain images that way. Or perhaps someone else with better eyes than mine can help you out.

assuming they are all authentic:
coin 1(must be 1800): about $1500
coin 2: melt. (about $16)
coin 3(looks like its an O mint mark): about $22

The Morgan and Peace should be around $17 and I believe there's a good chance that the first coin is a fake due to the large amounts of Bust counterfeits out there. As others have mentioned better pics are necessary.

Sorry guys, "worth" is what I meant.
English is not my native language.
Will try to get descent pictures later.
These are taken from skype web camera conversation. :)

The 1924 and the 1885 I know nothing about. The 1800 or 1880 (which ever it is) is fake. Here is what a real one looks like:   |

I agree the 1800 (you say its 1880) Bust coin is a fake. The condition of the other two would keep them from being very valuable but would need some better pictures to even start to be able to tell what grade they are and what they are worth if anything above melt value. The top one probably isn't even silver so it is probably not worth anything

thank you for your help fellas. I got some more photos:   Can you tell from these if the coins worth something? I am not a collector and don't know anything about them. It just so happened that a close friend of mine got them and was asking me if they worth anything... |

I'm not sure why this thread is in the VAM forum, but anyway, Are all of these coins the same size jj ? What are the diameters (mm)? Moved to classic coin section |

Are you trying to sell them? I am not asking to buy, just wondering what your motive is?

can you get close up pictures of each coin and post them one at a time? There are some coins in there I would need to see better before commenting on them so please take single photos of each of the coins Obverse and Reverse and post them in here

The second group contains no genuine coins at all. The first coin in your first post is not genuine either as has already been mentioned. The fact that you already have so many counterfeits immediately makes the 1885 Morgan and 1924 Peace dollars suspect as well so they are probably counterfeit too. You should weigh the Morgan and Peace dollars, correct weight is 26.73 grams for a 90% silver dollar and anything under 26 grams should be counterfeit. Edited by biokemist6

The Peace dollar is counterfeit... it has the cartoonish lettering on the reverse like many coming out of Thailand. They will be non-magnetic, but the weight will be off. |
