Hello all:
I am coming here for the sports card message boards with some help needed.
My father in law has collected coins since about 1940. I asked him about the coins he thought were most valuable. He went by his trusty price guide and came up with these.
Are any of these coins worth being slabbed in your opinion. There are 2 double struck, a 55 and a 72 and a 1922 with no mint mark. The link eo all the coins is here:

Here are the scans of the fronts of all the coins. Please let me know what you think.

For sure.
The Columbian half and 10 cent note probably not. That gold probably not unless it has a mint mark. We'd need to see the reverses to have a better idea.

What does this mean and how does it get stopped?

An acetone bath.
I also agree with getting this coin some help.
Slabbing the 55 DDO for authenticity and protection is also a great idea.
Slabbing or putting the 72 DDO in an airtight will also help keep its Red color.
I would do the same for the 1877.
Should he be contemplating the sale of these coins, I would be very interested in this one. It has the "look" I have been seeking.
My Collection of Old Holders
Never a slave to one plastic brand will I ever be.
As for soaking the 55 in acetone, I should just let is soak for 15 minutes and then take it out and air dry?
As for the grading fees (PCGS). I looked into it a little and was completely confused about what it should cost to have these slabbed.
I believe I have to join at a minimum of $49 to be able to submit coins.
The Double Die coings would be "Mint Errors" @ $40 ea.
The 1887 and the 1922 at $18 or $30 depending on speed of service.
THe $5 gold piece $40
Am I on the right trace here?
Thanks again,
Jon
