<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JCB1983, post: 1293521, member: 23885&quot;]I inherited about a backpack full of world coins from my Grandpa when he passed.&nbsp; There are so many coins I only get it out of the safe about every other year or so.&nbsp; I had been expanding on some knowledge on world currency and decided to break them out.&nbsp; There are about 50 zip-lock bags full of currency from around the world.&nbsp; A lot of Chinese stuff from like 1910-1920, Francs from the 1800&#039;s, I found a georgivis 1691, and a few coins from the 1700&#039;s.&nbsp; Anyhow the average coin I found to be worth about 5-20 bucks.&nbsp; Nothing special, but one of the few coins that was actually in a protective case was this 3 dollar gold coin.&nbsp; I mostly collect Bust halfs and Barber Halfs, and didn&#039;t even know they made a 3 dollar gold coin.&nbsp; So I did some research, and it looks like the coin could have some value.&nbsp; I will note it is an 1855 and not an 1855-S, but I see the mintage number is only like 55k.&nbsp; Besides two minor knicks on the rim, the coin looks like it is in impecable shape.&nbsp; I&#039;m just throwing a ballpark of around AU-55 or around there.&nbsp; I will say I am a total newbie at this and couldn&#039;t find my digital camera.&nbsp; I took these on my phone, and my hand shakes.&nbsp; Once again sorry for the picture quality.&nbsp; I plan on getting this PCGS slabbed, and updating pictures i the future, but it would be great if somone could give their opinion on this coin.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Thank You Kindly,</p><p><br /></p><p>Jason[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
