Copy of the sought after draped bust dollar coin. It apparently is a 1 troy ounce silver bullion coin.

 

Thank you for your response, copy does that mean its a fake? I weighed it, it is 31.1g any idea on age? Thank you!

P.S. Also, not sure if u can make out the D and T mark on bottom

 

I mean fake as in a copy, it has the same design as the sought after 1796 dollar coins, worth in the thousands. This, is a privately minted bullion coin worth only silver melt which is 1 ounce.

 

thank you for your response! it was sealed in a chest for 50+ years from my great great grandmother along with a bunch of morgans.

 

can we see some of those morgans?

 

heres one, let me know what you think, thanks!

 

did you want me to post them in a new thread or just in this one? Thanks!

 

Either way is fine. That is a pretty solid morgan you got there!

 

Depending on what those block spots on the obverse is, I see a high AU or a MS 64/65 without the spots. Unfortunately, I'm not really the best in spotting wear/rub and the difference in that so that would be my best guess.

 

Awsome thank you! What kind of value would i be looking at for that morgan?

Here is also another morgan from the bunch and a few other coins that were in there but not with the morgans the morgans were wrapped in a kinda weird roll.

 

The bullion pieces below the morgan are worth melt which is 20ish per, as of today and morgans are going for 25ish in circulated and 50+ in MS

 

This one looks cleaned. The luster is off, especially on the obverse.

 

Actually, its copying the Heraldic reverse dollars made later. The 1796 was the small eagle if I remember correctly.

 

thanks for the correction

 

thanks everyone for all there help! i have one last one i would like your opinion on, this one is mounted in a ring so it was a little difficult to get a good pic, i think it says 2 1/2 on it but not sure, front date reads 1908

Thank you!

 

the ring itself weighs around 30grams and its almost looks as if its carved written not stamped 18k inside. thanks alot for your help!

 

Rings made out of quarter eagles were fairly common. I would say its worth at least 3/4 an ounce of gold, so about $975 today. The coin will be damaged from being mounted, so I am not sure its worth more than that.

 

thank you for your response, so is my best bet attempting to remove the coin regardless if I ruin it or not its still worth its weight in gold so to speak?
