<p>[QUOTE="Bdigger, post: 4182687, member: 157"][USER=106]@quirkygirl[/USER] Since this coin is on all the lists as one of the most counterfeited coins, You night ask this next guy if he can help you get it graded OR if you have a coin dealer (shop) nearby they will probably help. (Do not go back to the guy that dropped it,it's obvious that he knows nothing about coins). Having the coin graded, will authenticate it and assign a quality grade to it, thus helping you with value and make it easier to sell. It will always have the value of the gold content, grading can add the numismatic value to it. Grading will cost somewhere between $60 to $100. Being one of the most counterfeited coins, trying to sell it RAW (without a grade or authentication) will be difficult. I think it's worth getting graded.</p><p><br /></p><p>The sales price difference between graded and ungraded examples of this coin is big. If you have trouble getting someone to help you get this graded, let me know, and maybe I can help.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
