<p>[QUOTE="oz_in_ohio, post: 2834438, member: 89534"]This coin had just over 700,000 minted and was made out of .500 silver ( or 50% ) . As the eye of the horse is well visible, i would grade it as a good VF due to being handled and possibly cleaned but not done well.</p><p>When it was issued, it weighed 48 grams but due to usage, part of it has worn down as you said it was just over 45 grams...The dirt in the rim tells me it is cleaned.... At the grade of VF to g/VF in my eyes Book price is $15.00 and EF is $20.00. It has to be taken down a grade for the bad cleaning. Also has toning under the 3. The kings high cheekbone shows a bit of wear... I estimate the book value to be anywhere in there but in realistic terms, it is only worth what a person wants to pay for it. However dealers buying price may be 50% of that value as it is not rare. I have only added the scan for the many disbelievers out there....OIO[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
