    I got this as a gift from CT member @Dillan along with a bunch of Canadian coins for our Canada coin sets. A big thank you goes out to him from us.:happy::happy:

    It's the first time I have seen a $20 Saint Gaudens coin come with this set. IMG_0001.JPG

    Thought you were gonna see a real one didn't ya.;)

    This is a Us Micro coin set. The full size dime is there for size comparison. Actually they probably could all fit on the dime if I tried.:)

    I will have to find a set I bought a while back called "Your weekly allowance", I will have to look for it though.
    Doesn't have the Gaudens though.

    That's quite the risk buying one raw. You sure it's not an omega counterfeit?:rolleyes::p

    OK....continued as promised....:D.....what does "Genuine, Not Gradable" mean ? I've never heard of that.

    Anybody ?

    I am no expert but the 9186.94 number may give a clue. The 94 after the decimal place would usually be the grade but in this case it should be a code for the problem that makes it not gradeable.

    I looked up your coin on PCGS and it is giving it a code 94 Altered Surfaces.
