The coins are well worn, the best would grade VF in my opinion. As listed in the Krause catalog the 1907 & 1908 1 peso and 50 centavo coins are...
That's a new one on me - can't find it on the CONECA site either. I would consider sending it in to CONECA if I were you.
Value is determined largely by the condition or grade of the coin. As for the doubled die - you need to make sure it is one and not mechanical...

If I were you I would send an email to Kelly's and explain what you did and what you found. He is a reputable dealer and will likely give you a...
