Can you take some close ups of it? Like a closeup of the date, Liberty in the crown and the reeded edge?

If it's real, it'll be worth between 1600 to $2k. Big question is where did it come from?

 

I will take a couple of those if you dont mind Nice coin!

 

I work at a pawn shop and a customer come in with this wanting to know some info on it. I will have to see if he will bring it back
in to take more pics. And he may be willing to sell

 

Get a picture of whatever is going on at 3'o clock on the reverse too.

 

From what I can see it won't grade because of a small solder and the reverse is slightly damaged on the rim, but other than that it looks OK to me.

 

Nice coin, It would be best to study that date on a $20 Liberty to see how to determine wether if it's genuine or fake. Next would be to take it to a dealer and have them look at it. Another is to get it graded. It looks to be a MS-64-65 ISH, which will put it between $1600 and $2100.

Be careful, there's more fakes out there than there are genuine.

 

I think that rim ding at 3:00 on the reverse would prevent it from approaching MS-64.
