hya:well dont know how to make pics bigger so im buying bigger coins can you grade this or does it need to be bigger
Kind of unusual to see a US commemorative with that much wear. I don't know much about these, but unless they are known for super weak strikes, there is too little detail in the obverse hair and the reverse globe for an XF, so VF it is.
to be honest it was the best one out of 4 the 1892 is less minted then 1893 and they looked woorse. i think they got a lot of use.
You could have purchased them for 1$ at the Exposition, however, as mentioned, not all of them sold in addition to the fact that they (the Exposition) owed money to the bank, so as partial payment they gave them the unsold half dollars at face -- and thus, they circulated
this is very helpfull not only collecting coins but learning the history behind the coin thanks alot how about this one
According to the Red Book, the 1825 Matron Head large cents' claim to fame is that they come from one of only three years in that decade with no overdates or multiple size letter varieties; and some of them served as the underdate in '26. 10.89 grams of copper, 28-29mm diameter, mintage 1,461,100, probably worth more than listed in my 2003 edition - $13 G-4, $17 VG-8, $25 F-12, and up.
yeah about 25$ f so i will keep and hand down to my children.i would think something that old would be worth more im not in it for the money but the coins are very interesting.
