<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Silverhouse, post: 1159971, member: 29452&quot;]<font face="Trebuchet MS">Recently I in herited this gold coin from my grandfather. It being my first gold coin acquired, quite by surprise. My father bought it from a local coin shop in late 1999 or 2000, he couldn&#039;t remember exactly. Notice the &quot;original&quot; price of 250.00? It&#039;s what dad said he paid for it. He then gave it to my grandfather whom left it tto me. I do know that the U.S. Mint didn&#039;t quite mint a half million gold coins from 1866-1879. At least that is what my research indicated. I&#039;d like to preserve this coin and eventually move it out of this casing it is in. I thought of grading it via NGC. I have not decided. Any insight would be helpful. Thanks. </font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
