Is ICG any good?
Local coin shop guys were split. One said he would buy it if it came into his shop (but didn't like something about the reeding or something along...
Jeweler weighed it at 27.22g. Still not definitive, right? Mainebill, the better photos didn't help?
John "Addams" (or is that too subtle?)
Yeah, still a nice coin. I'm jealous ;-)
I'll probably never sell it unless I'm destitute. My kids can sell it when I'm dead ;-) Does anyone know what other "tests" these places run on...
I was reading the fine print, and it says that if a coin I'm thinking of sending in to be verified (a trade dollar) turns out to be fake, they...
A local dealer (registered with PCGS) offered to take it to a show in Florida in January, but he hasn't given me a price yet. Probably more than...

I'll try to find a more accurate scale soon. Found the silver slide test. Where to find small, weak magnets? "All that is gold does not...
Awesome. Thanks for the fast answers! "All that is gold does not glitter" ~ Tolkien
The ugly one looks like it says "East Caribbean" maybe? The other one may be eastern European?
Oh, and if you flip it, the reverse *is* oriented correctly (top is up if flipping it along the x-axis)... Good sign... "All that is gold does...
eBay. $100. Please help me determine if it is real or not. It is underweight which is not a good sign... [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] "All that is...
How'd I do? I am guessing obverse is F15-VF25 and the reverse is slightly better, maybe VF35? I paid $33. Thanks for your input. [IMG][IMG]
