[QUOTE="GarryW, post: 22822, member: 1626"][b]More information on St gaudens[/b] Well, I have now thrown my old scales and verniers in the rubbish bin. Will start again with the new facts using properly calibrated measuring equipment. First though – no told me that the diameters should be measured square to the coin between the raised (various heights) letters / stars around the rim. Is this correct way to measure? These letters/stars can seem to vary quite a lot from not bold to very bold and sharp as on the 1929 coin. ---------------------------1929---- 1924---- 1924---- 1922 Diameter head to toe flat--- 34.26--- 34------ 34------ 34.12 Diameter across flat-------- 34.24--- 33.96--- 34------ 34.1 Diameter head to toe square 34------ 34------ 34------ 34 Diameter across square----- 34------ 34.04--- 34------ 34 Weight (gms)----------- 33.9---- 33.5---- 33.5---- 33.5 Your comments would now be appreciated on what you think I know people in Arizona, would I be able to get a authenticity certificate and valuation in Phoenix? Thank you for your time Garry[/QUOTE]
