gregakendall asked:


I have a number of valuable coins (Morgan Dollars, Franklin half dollars, Walking Liberty half dollar etc.) that I would like to sell on Ebay. I don't know anything about coins though. Here are my questions:

1. How do you take a good picture of a coin to show all the details (the ones I've taken are always blurry)?

2. What kinds of details would coin collectors want to know before buying (besides year, mint, etc.)?

3. How do you determine the condition of a coin?

4. Should I sell each coin individually, or should I sell them in sets? (If sets, should I sell them by year, by mint or what in order to get the most money?)

Thanks

dmgjj asked:


I have an 1889 Morgan Dollar with no marking at all above the D and the O in dollar, I think that means it came from the mint in Philly, but I just cannot seem to find an average value on the coin. I see one coin worth 17000 dollars and another worth 10... PLEASE HELP ME!

Hapo asked:


How can you tell if the old silver dollars are real? I have 2 1798 "Heraldic Eagle Reverse" and 2 1799. I have a 1886 morgan, I have an "1906 Ellis Island" silver dollar, and i found out they were commentative coins made in 1986. Someone made the 8 into a 0. I have 2 1864 liberty seated silver dollars. I have a 1876 trade dollar,an 1851 indianhead dollar, I can't find that one in the "red book" so I figure it is fake. I mean I bought them cheap. Not cheap but for the price that that coins would be worth if they are real, it was cheap. I went to a dealer and walking up to him probably still 7 feet away, I said I wanted to know if these silver dollars I have are fake, and immediately, he said yep. 7 feet away without looking at them. So I don't 100% really know. Everyone says if it is to good to be real.....but they is still a chance that they are.

chevy_guy asked:


I have a 1887 Morgan Silver Dollar. It is in very good condition with nice luster. I noticed from my other silver dollars it looked different. (I am not a coin expert, I just learned a little terminology and examined it closely under a microscope.) When I looked under the microscope I saw different shades and rises in metal and lines. When I finally realized that I could see a faint outline of the eagle from the back I tried to research it and figure it out. But I have not found any info on it. Could someone help me with this, and could it be valuable? The coin has a double die on the date, also on the lips there is a very strong die of a twig that wraps around the eagle on the back, you can see the middle line and the shape excellent. Also there are letters that are faintly marked on it that looks like a mirror image.
