some more taken outside in natural light

 

The second photos with the phone are better.

It doesn't appear that it would get a cameo if sent for grading.
The reverse would hold it back.

It's too bad about the spots but do not try to clean the coin in any way.
If sent to PCGS you could ask if they thought it would be a good one for restoration.

It is a strong RPM and appears it's the best one for the date.
There is a chance that the reason info is hard to find is because it's rare.

As far as value I would guess it would surprise you & most people here.
My guess would also be that the coin is worth the cost of grading.
Sorry I can't help more with a dollar value but it will depend if you sell it raw or have it graded and what the grade turns out to be.

 

Thank you for the help

 

Ok with the new pictures the coin isn't as bad as I thought.But still the milk spots e.t.c will hold it back quite a bit,I would suggest PCGS now.Make sure though they will attribute the RPM I would say grade wise Proof 67.

 

This photo is your best photo so far.

Edited to add: Try to get a photo this good of the reverse.

 

I was going to submit a coin about a year ago but got really confused about all, the options it has when submitting the coin. I didnt know what to chose

 

Try to get a better reverse photo then we can go from there.

 

Your microscope should turn so the base doesn't obstruct the view. Sit the microscope on something higher until you can see the entire coin on the screen then add some weight to the base so it doesn't tip over. You can zoom in or out to fill the screen with the image. Once you have taken the picture, you can crop it if necessary, using your computer photo program!

 

This was the coin I was going to send it. Silver Bicentennial Dollar Proof

 

Never did though

 

ok

 

Okay, that is a better reverse photo.
Give me a chance to review a few things and I will post a reply in a bit.

Good chance the silver dollar would not be worth the cost of grading.

 

Oh really thanks glad i didn't send it in

 

This image compares to your # 4 photo, it is a 69S cent and it is considered mechanical doubling since the underlying images have a flat sheared surface. If you have access to the microscope, you can slowly focus up and down and see if each doubling is rounded ( RPM) or flat (damage).
A flat surface goes quickly in/out of focus with vertical movement, rounded goes in/out gradually.
Good Luck, Jim
