$600 Draped Bust Silver Dollar purchased for $11

[1treasurehunter1]

Hey everyone,

Earlier this year I purchased a 1799 Draped Bust Silver Dollar for only $11. I purchased it as scrap not realizing its true value until I got home! The seller had a bunch of silver out, most of it silverplate but some sterling cutlery and coins. I gave him my best offer for the coins and sterling and he accepted.

I made a video showcasing the coin, just over 1 minute in length. Enjoy!

Any chance you could get us some pictures of it? Closer up and with better light than the video.

Very nice. I would get it graded.

I agree. Lots of fakes out there. Without detailed photos of the obverse/reverse there isn't any way to tell if it's a $600 coin, a silver fake worth $11, or a fake worth nothing. Here's a link to some fake Draped Bust Dollars:

Don't know about this, you should have it looked at by someone who knows more...
