[QUOTE="900fine, post: 216033, member: 6036"]Well, there's certainly no doubt that 1875-CC $5 is a very scarce coin. That's the good news. The bad news is... if it has been in a necklace locket the value is significantly diminished. But considering the scarcity of this piece, it's well worth pursuing. [B]I recommend having it certified[/B] by [B]NCS[/B] (division of NGC) or [B]ANACS[/B]. Those two grading services will certify "problem" coins, such as those which have been in jewelry. There are many such coins. Is it still in the locket ? If so, contact NCS or ANACS about your next move. It is possible they will remove it for you. If they will, that's what I would do. If they won't, probably take it to a jeweler. Also... do you live in a town with a [B]reputable coin dealer[/B] ? Drop by and show him your coin and get some advice. Please post photos. No doubt a lot of folks will offer an opinion on grade, and that gives a much better idea of value. For your convenience, here are links for NCS and ANACS : [URL="http://www.ncscoin.com/"]http://www.ncscoin.com/[/URL] [URL="http://anacs.com/Default.aspx?AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1"]http://anacs.com/Default.aspx?AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1[/URL] Browse around in there; you'll find contact info. Greysheet shows these values for [B]Original [/B]'75-CC $5s : VF20 $3,000 AU58 $40,000 This one will be worth much less due to the jewelry mounting - assuming it's genuine. Good luck ![/QUOTE]
