It sounds like from your info though, that I could sell it ungraded based on the VAM and mint to collectors in that niche on a forum such as ebay (but probably not at an auction house such as Heritage?). </p><p><br /></p><p>I know these are sort of basic questions, but I figure you have to start somewhere..lol and I swear I really have done an enormous amount of research on my own so far; from my dad's collection, I've managed to do comprehensive research for Lincoln Pennies (wheat and memorial), Morgan Dollars and Jefferson Nickels so far. I've analyzed all the booked coins for these but still have a large box of plastic tubed Pennies dated from 1930's through 1970 for each mint to look through and apply my new found knowledge to (going to take me a long while)!
