Message:: [QUOTE="hontonai, post: 691527, member: 4703"]IF the '07 Double Eagle is genuine, it's worth at least 10 times that much, and possibly much more if it were graded high enough by a top-tier grading company.  I don't know enough about US gold coinage to form an opinion on either genuineness, or grade, but there are a lot of fakes out there.Those are from Great Britain, assembled in 1965 just before they changed their currency from the oddball base 12/base 20 "pound/shilling/pence" (£,-/,d) system to a decimal system, with 100 new pence equaling one pound.  I can't find any record of such a set being issued by the Royal Mint, so I'm pretty sure yours is a privately assembled group, probably worth <$20. Even though the Trinidad & Tobago proof set was struck at the Franklin Mint, a private company in Pennsylvania, it does appear to be genuine.  It has a catalog value of ~$12. The T&T $100 coin is 12 karat gold, <1/10 ounce AGW (actual gold weight), and basically worth bullion value +/- a small premium depending on whether you are buying or selling.  At today's rate that makes it worth ~$100. The rest of your coins, including the privately assembled Bicentennial grouping, are pretty common, and not particularly valuable.[/QUOTE]
