<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jblaur, post: 408881, member: 15370&quot;]Hi everyone!</p><p>I&#039;ll be the one to say I don&#039;t know ANYTHING about coins. But a few years ago I was working at a mini market and a younger guy handed me these coins for gas. Me, I wasn&#039;t thinking anything of it because I was always looking for silver 50 cent pieces because they&#039;re &quot;pretty&quot; and sound nice when you hit them off certrain surfaces.</p><p>I noticed they were really shiny and said one dollar on them so I put the money for them in the drawer and kept the coins. Later when I was looking at them I seen the dates were 1878 and 1881. I figured the kid had to have taken them from grandparents or someone&#039;s collection so I looked out for any police reports of them missing but nothing.</p><p><br /></p><p>I still have them and did not know if they were worth any kind of money.</p><p>From what I have been reading I just can&#039;t tell the difference. Some of them go for ridiculous prices on E-bay.</p><p>I know they are both from San Francisco but that&#039;s it!</p><p>And the bird has 7 feathers... I thought I read something about that too.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
