[QUOTE="zekeguzz, post: 856896, member: 15455"]My friend came over today and a bunch of silver coins with him. There were IKE's, Keneddy's(64's), and walking liberty and franklin half dollars. There were also roosevelt dimes(about 45) and Washington quarter. But the kickers were: 1) A 1854D $3 gold coin. 2) A 1854D $2 1/2 gold coin 3) A 1853 $1 gold coin He wanted me to find out what each coin might be worth. Well we checked the Black book for ballpark numbers and I got really excited. This is way, way out of my league. But Like a jerk I'm taking a stab at them. I know now that finding a genuine 1854D three gold coin is like finding the proverbial ' king solomon's mine/s'. After studying this coin and reading up on it I have a 60% belief that it is genuine. I neede all the help I can get to make an educated guess. I don't have a weight scale for coins yet but will try and get one ASAP. Also a good book on these gold coins wouldn't hurt. If my scans are good enough maybe you all can fill me up with your opinions. This just can't be happening to me. Their history is that my friend's aging relative gave them to his wife. Hwas a longtime collector.[/QUOTE]
