<p>[QUOTE=&quot;satootoko, post: 39362, member: 669&quot;]You&#039;ve got a winner my friend! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s not &quot;still&quot; in packaging.&nbsp; It has been graded as a 66, on a scale of 60-70, (generally considered to be a very high grade) by one of the highest regarded independent grading services.&nbsp; I have verified the serial number on your &quot;slab&quot; with the PCGS data base, and it checks out.</p><p><br /></p><p>As I said earlier, grade is all important for a coin like that.&nbsp; The PCGS guide, which is generally considered to be high retail, values an MS60 at $350, an MS63 at, $875, and an MS66 at $3,000. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; The highest grade they list is MS67, and it&#039;s shown as $6,250.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t have access to the PCGS &quot;Pop Report&quot;, so I can&#039;t tell you how many of the 160,960 1804 quarter eagles have received equal or higher grades.&nbsp; Perhaps someone will come across this thread who can access that information for you.</p><p><br /></p><p>Pawn shops are <i>not</i> a good place to dispose of such a coin.&nbsp; You would be lucky to get $750 from a pawnshop.&nbsp; EBay is a much better choice, if you are an experienced seller who can post clear photos of <i>the coin you are selling</i>.&nbsp; Otherwise, a visit to some coin shops in your vicinity is in order.&nbsp; Don&#039;t take any offer until you have shopped it around a bit.&nbsp; If you&#039;re afraid of being taken advantage of by reason of your age, it might not be a bad idea to have a parent or adult friend do the selling for you.&nbsp; (If you&#039;re under 18, that&#039;s actually a must, because for legal reasons many dealers won&#039;t deal with a minor on a transaction of that size.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, because of its high value, be prepared to explain how you came into possession at your young age.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
