<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Silverhouse, post: 1509368, member: 29452&quot;]Since this is a want list, there&#039;s a woman at work who wants to sell me her 1901 $20.00 Gold liberty head.&nbsp; The problem is she had it mounted so she can wear it around her neck.&nbsp; Is there any way to remove the prongs without damaging the coin in any way?&nbsp; I am debating on whether to buy it because of this.&nbsp; As far as I can recall it doesn&#039;t have a mint mark on it.&nbsp; She asked how much it was worth and what I&#039;d be willing to pay.&nbsp; From my research the highest I&#039;ve seen for a coin like this was 1600.00&nbsp; It appears to be in original condition and she&#039;s had it in her family for 100 years.&nbsp; She said it has never been cleaned.&nbsp; I am just wondering how scratched it might be from wearing it around her neck and handling it with her hands.&nbsp; This would be my biggest purchase yet IF I decide to buy it.&nbsp; She&#039;s selling to help with her daughters college education.&nbsp; I will try to get some photo&#039;s of it for the CT&#039;ers to weigh in on.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
