    If it's unminted then it's priceless!

    Thank you for your input but do you have an idea of what it would be worth??? Also I apologize for not using the proper terminology but I am still learning. By " unminted" I was wanting to portray that my coin has no mint mark on where it was made.

    Are unminted toothpicks and dental floss also worth more than the mint-flavored ones? :confounded:

    In order to determine the value, we would need clear, crisp photos of the front, back and edge.

    All of this education and yet you still have not posted photos.

    There are no hypothetical. Post images and you will get answers. Continue to try to prove your manhood and get ridiculed. Pretty basic concept.

    Post photos.

    Good day to you Sir,
    My education has nothing to do with posting pictures or not. Hahaha and absolutely nothing to do with proving my manhood to anyone . I am absolutely a very confident individual and usually never mention that to anyone at random like this but this individual took a cheap shot and do not take to kindly to disrespectful ill- mannered behavior or slanders!!! To tell you the truth I prefer not to post pics yey on this site just yet as I just joined. I am not against sharing pics privately to the right people.

    One final note ,. Here is where you are not correct Sir in assuming I am trying to prove my manhood for I never try to prove anything to anyone but rather to myself and my CREATOR!! And believe me Sir people might think they are ridiculing me but I'm reality they just tend to make themselves like the ridiculed asses.! HYPOTHETICALLY Speaking sir and might I add this is being stated on a "Conceptually Basic platform people that approach me like that are viewed as truly walking backwards because I truly only see an asshole(s)

    What method did you use to test it for silver?

  • Simple, send it in to pcgs or ngc to get it certified as silver and then it will sell for high dollar, otherwise it’s worth 50 cents.

  • If you want to sell a coin, then try to sell it...maybe post a pic and list why folks should buy it.
    If you are not trying to sell or trade it, please don't post in Buy, Sell, Trade.

    If you have questions about it's authenticity, there's this really cool place you can send your coins to be graded.
