I think you did great for $14. That is certainly a coin most don't see very often. I would be happy to find it for what you paid. Thanks for...
If it were merely a plated coin, the weight would tell the difference. Since this one weighs so close to that of silver planchet, I think we can...

Wow! That is simply a beautiful coin! Sure looks AU+ to me. Thanks for sharing!
I find using a microscope is MUCH easier on my eyes. Great pickups!! I bet the scope pays for itself very quickly, especially if you search for...
I try to "pre check" banks in new areas before deciding which will be my pick up banks and which will be my dump banks. Some banks are better...
Put me in the MS63+ star camp as well. This is yet another example of why I can never completely ignore e-bay, even if good finds like these are...

Many good points made so far. I would also highly recommend picking up a decent dissection microscope. It is so much easier to search large...
