Sure, wear is what makes it AU. And this coin is a good example of how to tell the difference from a weak strike, which the O mint coins are known...
Probably about $30.
Among dealers (dealer to dealer) it is. But on the dealer networks, if one agrees to buy a coin sight unseen and that lower price, he has no...
Let me see if I can make a better illustration for you to help you understand. Now this coin isn't an ancient, but it is quite old - minted in...
I'd have to say that's the nicest AU55 I've ever seen.

If you look at the pics closely - and when I say closely what I mean is this, I get the largest I pic I can on my screen and then I pick up a 3...
I know that the coin exists, but it is unsual and not a common coin, it's not listed in Krause that I can find. Don't confuse that to mean it's...
Personally, I've never heard of them. But I'll bet there are a half dozen people who are members here who could you the same grade coin for that...
