[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 1664573, member: 36230"]Your photos are not of the quality necessary to give an opinion on the claimed varieties, which are not something the novice should be buying raw, at least when from an unknown source. I am not aware of an 1934-D 5C with an FS#, at least as of the 5th edition. In this condition, I doubt the 1901 IHC is worth anywhere near the written price. I cannot think of any RPDs for this date that would have much value in this grade. I quickly checked CONECA and there are eight DDOs for this date/mint, so the generic label means nothing, and this is even if it is an actual doubled die. That said, the chances of this coin being a variety worth $90 in this condition is slim to none. If you are looking for coins to share with your children, I suggest you start with the basics and learn while building a hobby together. Many people, who have had only the best of intentions, have thrown good money away on junk because they did not take the time to educate themselves and/or blindly trusted the person they bought from.
