[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 728823, member: 13650"]Wow. That's a pretty nice little inheritance. I'm surprised nobody responded to you yet. First off, is there a letter listed next to the date on the label that would indicate the mintmark? Where they were made will affect their prices signficantly. You can also look at the mintmark yourself to verify. It would be located on the reverse, directly under the branches in the eagle's claws. If there's no letter there, than the coin was made in Philadelphia and NGC won't have a letter listed on the label either. (Philly was the first and has always been the main central mint so it was always assumed that a coin was produced there unless it was identified by mintmark from one of the branch mints) As far as posting pics, yes, it would help because eye appeal plays a big roll in what a coin is worth.
