But the bezel will damage the rim and a TPG will grade them as &quot;Ex Jewelry, AU Details&quot; or similar. </p><p><br /></p><p>Unless they are a super rare date, they will resale essentially at just the gold value (&quot;melt&quot;).</p><p><br /></p><p>Given the damage is done, if there is anybody in the family who would enjoy them as jewelry and for the family connection, keep them as they are, love them and pass them down. It&#039;s a connection to the great-great-great grandfather they never knew.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
