<p>[QUOTE="ChristineR, post: 7475459, member: 120198"]Hello, I am the holder of the above coin, & I do want to thank John for his guidance (even in suggesting I photograph outdoors in natural light) as well as each of you for your ideas. ArtDeco, the weight (on my breadmaking scale) is 7g. A local coin place did tell us it was gold & not to sell it for gold weight. Ryro, I literally did stumble across these coins in a sense. My uncle was an avid coin collector who, quite unfortunately, suffered a stroke before instructing the family on the coins in his absence. My mother inherited them. When my mother passed, I inherited her estate and found a container with probably a thousand coins in her garage - under a pile of stored things.</p><p>I've attached a photo of a few others that we haven't been able to identify. Seeing the name Stack's on there, I wonder if I should bring the collection there. Or Sotheby's? Or not an auction? </p><p>Thank you again for any suggestions you can offer. </p><p>Christine</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://file:///var/folders/_c/svr12rl55s5bcm7hmt_7zr7c0000gn/T/com.apple.Safari/WebKitDropDestination-JlXdyNfr/IMG_7008.jpeg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
