<p>[QUOTE=&quot;steve1942, post: 1975336, member: 21699&quot;]Getting good answers.&nbsp; Most Charlotte coins have very bad finish.&nbsp; As to the note, NGC said &quot;cannot be graded as it appears coin was apparently used in inapporiate jewelry mount&quot;,&nbsp; I don&#039;t know if they determine anything about coin before the decision was made about mount.&nbsp; I do believe it is real, though, as it was purchased in the 1940&#039;s and has been sitting around for years.&nbsp; I ran across it while checking a friends coin he had stored in a box.&nbsp; Checked a picture of it against counterfeit Charlotte coins and it seemed to pass all the tests to be real.&nbsp; The Charlotte poor coin quality was mentioned, guess it&#039;s why the mint got shut down so fast (unless the South needed precious metal).&nbsp; Either way, makes me believe its real and worth , at least VG if not for rim marks.&nbsp; Most of your answers fall in line with my thoughts.&nbsp; Not worth trouble to sell on Ebay.&nbsp; Maybe sell to jewelry store (if they understand or care about the Charlotte minting.&nbsp; Thanks for your time.&nbsp; Steve[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
