<p>[QUOTE=&quot;waterhunter, post: 1314308, member: 34621&quot;]I am a rookie to this Forum.</p><p>&nbsp; I am an underwater metal detector guy. I recently found three old US Coins all within 2 inches of each other. I am gathering as much data as possible on the most interesting one.</p><p>It has been graded by ANACS. It is an 1836 Houcks Panacea Baltimore Hard Times Token. It has an Overstrike date - 1828 over the 1836. I have some questions I thought this forum could help answer.</p><p>ANACS graded it AU 50 for details but with corroded surface. (no way to tell how long it has been underwater)</p><p>1) How can I determin the value of this token when it is probably a one of a kind (Unique because of the overstrike date) ?&nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; A few have sold without the overstrike date for between $500 and $1,700.oo each and they were from very fine to XF (less than my AU 50 but better surface)</p><p>2) Should I get an appraisal from an auction company like Heritage or Stacks?</p><p>3) Is it collectable by both Coin Collectors and Token Collectors since it is both a coin and a token?</p><p>4) Is there a way to find out if it is indeed a Unique coin at this time? Are there any others with the same overstrike date?</p><p><br /></p><p>All information is appreaciated.</p><p>I will try to attach a picture. (first time at this)</p><p>TY</p><p>Gary G.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
