[QUOTE="clembo, post: 466806, member: 8033"]Good question Sherri. I wouldn't call it a G4 nor would I call it worthless. I have an arrangement with my boss (I work in a coin shop). I take them home and "play with them", if it lists over $10 in G4 he wants to know. Last week I found a 15-S and it turned out real nice. I had actually sold a "non doctored" 15-S that day at work for $40 and mine looked better. I knew I had a potential buyer so I asked the boss what he wanted for it. He said $10.
