That is hilarious! "Find Death Today. Shop Death at Target" "Were these search results helpful?" :too-funny:
I know a dealer who buys foreign silver and melts it down. I've been able to rescue a few nice coins from such a fate, including an uncirculated...
Agreed-- especially if they want $50 each for Eisenhower and Anthony dollars. And all of the actual silver dollars are just "very good" :eek:
If you are seeing the same thing I am seeing, I see nothing but extremely common silver coins in the picture. Certainly no "Seated Liberty"...
Actually, the ad says this: "Your treasury will include every Morgan and Peace dollar from every year minted since 1900." That seems to indicate...
You know what they say about deals that seem too good to be true. No markings, looks like an off color. As someone else noted, the 10 cubic inches...

Nothing really special that I can tell-- it just looks like the one on the left has seen more wear than the other one.
It looks to me like someone might have given your coin an acid bath. It doesn't look like a mint error to me, more like PMD (post-mint damage).
I think one of the "problems" with silver is that it is held in reserve by many mines around the world as a by-product of base metal mining. In...
That sounds like the specifications for a sovereign, all right. Official weight-- 7.9881 grams. :)
Just to be sure, your coin is about the size of a nickel, right?
