Au Seeker Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Terry, GREAT FIND!!! I'm into coins, can you post a list of the dates and mintmarks please? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Soloman Posted January 31, 2021 Author Share Posted January 31, 2021 1882 O18801892 O1894 O1893 O1889 O190218881901 S1903 OThese make up the bulk of the coins, however, there are a couple of dates that may be worth some money. The bulk of the cache is New Orleans, and Philadelphia minted, with a few San Francisco. The appraiser took a lot of time with each coin, and explained how grading worked, and what it costs. He was horrified when I showed him the video of me finding them, and told me with all that shaking and rubbing them around, I probably caused a couple thousand dollars in damage to the coins. I kinda looked at him and smiled, shrugged my shoulders and told him I was still one very happy camper!So the majority of the coins are worth $75-$90, and I am having four coins professionally cleaned and graded. They are 1896-O; 1895-O; 1893-O; 1892-S. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they recited the memo about cleaning coins ... Their goal being only to remove dirt- not patina/toning. "this 1000 grit paste on the buffer ota shine em rite up." Some coin sites put good value on AU, BU grades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 So. TERRY, How much extra will your accountant charge you to itemize expenses for the year to offset this capital gain on your taxes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hardtimehermit Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Excellent Terry, great score buddy, next hoard try to be a bit more careful with those coins, it's crazy how they lose value so quick. Next jar maybe gold!! ht 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 I wouldn't be surprised if the coins were in " circulated" condition when they went into the jar. A little roughhousing , after the fact , probably didn't amount too much. Depending on the mintage for any particular year, it looks like 4+x melt value(90% Ag) is an average valuation in the coin mag, I saw , as well as Terry's appraisal. I think ms60> increases the ante 10x. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
