No. Could be natural toning. Not worth anything. If it's REALLY gold, it could be plated, which is worth, nothing. Happy hunting.
The unknown population is a concern. How many survived? How many are slabbed with a cert. number for documentation? If 12 of these exist is it...
It's a good find and has good value as mentioned by a few posters already.
Cool is it 14K? I only have 4. Upper right quadrant of photo. Looking to getting a ring board like Paddy has. 3 are 10K and 1 is 14K. Because...
Not buried. But the large silver chain on the left was completely under the wood chips near some exercise equipment. 58.4 grams. [ATTACH]
It's true they won't have parking meters that accept change. There's really no need to buy a common quarter from a coin dealer for 80 cents. You...
How is it downgraded? And no, it's not fresh. Cracking it out doesn't change the atoms of the same coin that sold previously. They should have...

When I think of blast white, I see dipped 100+ year old Morgans that are an unnatural color. In this case it looks much better to me, than that...
I'm not saying this coin is fake, but these have been counterfeited a great deal recently, and the price would not be a steal if they are fakes....
LD In the SD the 9 curls around more. And LIBERTY is weakly struck. [ATTACH]
