Without the scratches I think $150 is right. With the scratches, under $100. ($75-$90?) Cleaning it up can be risky if you are not an expert and...
With a mintage of just over 8000 pieces this is a rare coin. I am seeing $3450 in VF 20, as an F-12 perhaps $2500? I would keep it if I could as...

At 300,000 it would still command a premium in low grades, because around 1982 when silver was $80 an ounce, many good silver coins were sold for...
Some 1983 coppers have been found and sold for very high amounts. I believe in a case like that, when the population increases, the prices will...
It's a beautiful coin. I agree the scratches will come back AU-58 Details. Do you think the scratches are from an old cleaning (retoned), because...
