I can only imagine what was said, but from what little of your other responses that remain, can only assume you took offense to what was actually meant as a defense (of you). You're welcome. Like the other gentleman, I too wish you luck, but hopefully you'll do a little more homework before sending it in.
I took it to a coin dealer in Pikeville KY the dude freaked out even called his dad the owner he offered me 200 then 500 after I turned down he asked me what I would take for it told him I get back to him I wanted your all's opinion first
Honestly, coins like this need to be evaluated in hand. What I would do is find a dealer that submits coins to PCGS or NGC. Have them look at it and if they think it's worth doing...submit it to one of those services and have the coin authenticated and graded. At that point, you will be in a much better position to sell it. I think coins like this need to be certified to really be sell-able in this day and age...at least the realize the ultra high prices.
Is it brilliant, sharply struck, and does it have square rims? If so, it is likely a proof. If not, it is likely a Philadelphia Mint business strike. Up until the 1980s, Philadelphia minted business strikes carried no mint mark. Also proofs were struck in San Francisco and the "S" mint mark was erroneously removed from a small number of 1967 proofs. Ditto for Lincoln cents (except that Philadelphia business strikes still do not carry a mint mark of any kind).
It is hard to tell much, but the coin does not look like a proof from what I can see. It looks like a deeply toned business strike going by the rims. Better images would be helpful.
