Sorry, I don't know much about coins- my mom told me to check on the internet and see if these coins were worth anything, they were in the closet for like 6 years after we got them. Also, a lot of the other coins in the book have the black marks on them. I am trying to get a closer pic of the D but it isn't easy!

There are a few grading companies. I am sure others can give specifics.   07-22-2004, 11:43 AM   #18 (permalink) rick Coin Collector     Join Date: Jul 2004 Location: Mount Vernon, WA Posts: 1,241 My Mood: Blog Entries: 1 Quote: Originally Posted by JBK Why not get it slabbed and sell it as a guaranteed authentic coin and get top $$ for it? Because they think or know it is probably fake. I say get the dime slabbed and see if they approve it. I don't buy slabbed coins, personally - they are too big for my binder - and my wife only gives me limited shelf space for my collection!   07-22-2004, 10:36 PM   #19 (permalink) GDJMSP Numismatist     Join Date: Nov 2002 Location: PA Posts: 24,653 Quote: Originally Posted by Steff Does that mean send it to the ANAC place? Steff - Yes - if you really want to know for certain - send it to ANACS. They would likely be your most economical choice in this situation.
