I took the twenty to a local coin dealer who I think is fair. The place was very busy with the price of metal what they are. I told the owner i had no interest in selling this coin but could he give me his opinion of it .He was kind enough to take the time . He seemed to be very pleased that it was a twenty and as Mainer said even more that it was a cc .He said that this is easily a vf with very minor enviromental damage . He didn't seem to see the flaw beside the wing (I did not bring it to his attention,he was very busy) for some reason that is much more obvious on camera than to the eye ,weird. Any how he said being a cc coin makes this worth hundreds more !!! this could easily be worth 600 to 650 !!! Someone in the coin shop said thats a find of a lifetime. . . i perfer to think not, if someone 125 years ago had this twenty in his pocket and lost it why couldn't he or she have had two? I think this lady has a sister out there somewhere in the cold Maine soil just waiting to be rescued!!! thanks for the views and comments ..H.H. bill
