SUBMIT AN ITEM FOR FREE APPRAISAL
We kindly ask you to limit your request to ONE item, preferably with images of both sides. We specialize in items that are older and of some historic importance. Please include photos of both sides if possible.
We may use your appraisal on our site as reference for others with the same item(s). We'll never display your personal information and will remove all sensitive information from your submission. Please contact us for a private appraisal. View our privacy policy.
Most inquiries we get are about circulated coins made after 1971, and/or coins where people mistake post-mint damage and wear for "errors". You can expect us to affirm these are face value. We ask that before you write and submit such questions, to PLEASE first read through our existing postings and our "what it's worth" primers.

D. 1964 silver penny
A lot of chemistry projects this week! If you boil a cent in concentrated sodium hydroxide and zinc powder, it coats it with zinc and gives it a silver appearance. And then if you heat it in a bunsen burner flame the zinc mixes with the copper surface and turns gold.
D. Dime on foriegn planchet?
No, just well worn. This can reduce the weight.
D. 1991 p dime look to sell
Market price is ten cents. Drive a good bargain.
D. 1910 penny missing the Li in liberty
When you have a coin that old, features tend to be missing from circulation wear. Your coin is probably a dollar or two in value, as it's a second-year Lincoln wheat cent in honest circulated condition.
D. KIndly review the listed items to see if there is any interest. Thank you
There are no silver 1853 cents; you might have a common steel 1943. The 1907 cent is likely worth about a dollar. The rest is face value, except the older halves, before 1971 we pay a few bucks apiece for them, and before 1965 around $7-8.
D. "Saint-Gaudens - Double Eagle"
"Houston we have a problem." I don't know WHAT you have there exactly, but if it's in a standard 2x2 holder, it's definitely not a U.S. coin, and probably not made out of real gold. So after showing it to a professional in person, I'd give it out on Halloween!
D. 1901 $5 Gold Liberty -S mint mark Fair market value?
I'd price this coin at $450-475. That's more than the value of the gold, but not much more as many are around. Good photo of a desirable type coin!
D. 1960 d its in good condition looks like struck through photos with the 2 drawn on them are the obverse and reverse of a 1981 d penny
I don't know what's going on with the first one, it might be a flawed planchet/lamination issue, or it might be garden-variety damage. In both cases you don't have a lot of value, if the first is a legitimate error it's only a few dollars in value.
D. Silver dime
1964 is important for two reasons. It's the last year they made 90% silver coins for regular circulation. Your dime is common and not a high grade; it's worth its weight in silver, nearly two dollars worth. Oh, and the other important thing that happened in 1964 was... me.
