I wouldn't rub your coin at all, but that is just me. It's incredibly easy to scratch a coin believe it or not.
The front is a barber quarter?
This is the nicest morgan I have ever seen! Guess the grade, you may or may not be surprised.
I am drooling over that coin!
Speedy, that is an awesome coin! I'm green with envy. It's clear that the d is doubled without the closeup, but I can see in the closeup that it...
I actually think that could be partially true. I remember when my dad bought his first 1793, and he paid about 300 for it if I remember correctly,...
Do you happen to have any idea of the rarity? I've never heard on one until now.
Wow a tripled mint mark! I'd like to own one. I'd really enjoy a picture of something like that too. :kewl:
They really are. My father used to be huge into collecting them, and even more so 1793 liberty caps. He had 59 of them at one time! Here's an...

oops, this is probably the wrong forum, although I am asking for a price.
I was wondering if anyone could tell me the grey sheet bid for an 1851 half cent in au-53 condition?
Here's a great deal!...
I can buy this for 131 dollars, but I'm not sure about the grade. There are quite a few rim dings, and I'm not sure if this would go to a AU-50....
