I inherited this coin from my mom, and know NOTHING about the value. Can someone help me out?! Thanks so much in advance. Val
Hi, Welcome to the Forum! Well the first 2 things to do would be to seen what mintmrk it has and also post a photo. Mintmark is located between the head and date. SM
Hi, I put pics of the coin under upload. I am so new to this, hope that was OK. Thanks for replying! There is no mint mark. Thanks again, Val
I also have a 1856 gold seated liberty with no mint marks just a D beside the 2.5 if yours had a mint mark it would be under the eagles tallons where he is sitting on the olive branch, you can look for a letter under there.I still have not recieved a straight answer as to the worth,a collector whom owns a store said i hit the jackpot and sent me 2 hours away to get it appraised,i got their after phoning in advance to let them know im coming and the guy had left,and his partner offered me 150.00 .So i would like to know its worth also,it looks to be in excellent condition and i have it protected,any intrested collectors can make me a reasonable offer,and i will ask other posts if they feel thats fair. Thanks for your time.
We would really need a clear picture of both the front and back before we can say how much it's worth. Condition is everything with these coins...and without a picture there is no way to grade the condition. I think I can safely say that if authentic, it is worth more than $150.
