WELL..............We're waiting
 
I have to ask.......... When an 11 year old approaches an Early american coin expert with an extremely valuable coin,
what was his reaction?
 
UH...OH! Houston..........We have a problem! :wink:

If memory serves me correctly, that is your second continental dollar. Wasn't your first one, back in March, a 1777?

There is no 1777.
 
I hope it turns out to be real! Post pics soon!
 
Why no pics? I can't wait to see it!
 
I'm confused. How old are you?

My gramps was given that by his grandpa who was born 1859.

That's a great sentimental value on that token. Unfortunately, it has no bearing on whether or not it's authentic. Only PCGS is gonna be able to authenticate it, and it's not going to be cheap or quick to do so.

Wish you the best of luck though!

I think he meant he will own. :)

If you check more posts he clearly has more time left to dig than the rest of us!
 
Spell check..... it won't hurt you. Nope, not at all.......

Don't hurt yourself doing that happy dance because a reproduction won't pay the doctor bill. ;D

You were still in diapers and digging in sandboxes at 11, so Scottso has you beat. ;D
