Description

The listing, Real Old Liberty U.S.A. Gold Coin has ended.

I was not able to take a real close look at the coin and not sure if it is real gold, and it is 3/8 in in Dia, but it has the letters MCMVI instead of a date and that stands for 1906. I was told it might be a $20.00 24 K gold coin, but judge for yourself before placing your bid.

Questions & Comments

Always research a valuable coin before listing, china has flooded the market with fakes and the FBI are very busy, but they are watching, good luck!

jtsi45 is correct, he knows his coins, its a gold plated replica, really no mystery, you can tell looking at it with bad eyes that the plating is rubbing off! good luck with it!

Franklin Mint put out miniture replicas of 1908 St Gaudin $20 gold coins out several years ago. Those were gold plated. This looks to be one of those.

Jan 7th, 2016 at 7:57:40 AM PST by

just going by what comments are left that's why I posted to judge for yourself if it is real or not

Jan 8th, 2016 at 3:15:05 AM PST by

Golden coin not gold coin is that right?

Jan 17th, 2016 at 12:22:14 PM PST by

not real gold is what I've been told but some say it is but would not be worth much in it's weight

Jan 17th, 2016 at 4:35:29 PM PST by

The miniature s are not marked in any way to say they are 22k

Jan 9th, 2016 at 5:55:30 AM PST by

Thanks Donna

Jan 9th, 2016 at 6:03:27 AM PST by

Thanks

Jan 11th, 2016 at 7:23:01 PM PST by

lol put it on a scale

Jan 11th, 2016 at 3:29:17 PM PST by

don't have a scale but I don't think it weighs that much

Jan 11th, 2016 at 7:23:41 PM PST by

it looks like a $5 gold coin. image is identical to my 1998 $5 gold coin. or at least nearly. wish there was a way to be more sure what it is. it awfully messed up.

Jan 13th, 2016 at 12:00:00 AM PST by

look at some of the comments and see what some coin collectors say

Jan 13th, 2016 at 4:38:04 AM PST by

just checked mine, it clearly says 1/10 oz .999 fine gold on the eagle side.
this one doesn't seem to say that anywhere.

Jan 13th, 2016 at 12:03:14 AM PST by

My coin is not .999 gold as far as I know

Jan 13th, 2016 at 4:37:20 AM PST by

Nice coin looke through comments I thik its plated cant tell by pics so ill jud db e for myself like you said

Jan 23rd, 2016 at 1:12:21 PM PST by

I see what looks like corrosion on the coin. Gold does not corrode. Hence It can't be gold.

Jan 20th, 2016 at 4:24:56 PM PST by

it is part of the cardboard that the coin was taped

Jan 21st, 2016 at 3:23:39 AM PST by

Can you post better pictures please and thank you

Jan 21st, 2016 at 5:35:29 PM PST by

I tried but my camera wont get that close
sorry

Jan 21st, 2016 at 5:38:53 PM PST by

If it did not stick its real gold you got 100% authentic gold

Jan 22nd, 2016 at 8:13:10 PM PST by

I'm not sure because I was told it's not real

Jan 23rd, 2016 at 2:48:16 AM PST by

i received one of these for attending a timeshare presentation in rhode island. they claimed it was real gold??????????

Jan 23rd, 2016 at 1:07:51 PM PST by

Thats the wrong design for a 1906

Jan 3rd, 2016 at 10:47:02 AM PST by

Thanks for the heads up

Fanned you:

An update to the auction by putting up some better photos might bring you more credits. If you are able to add any photos- placing a ruler under the edge of the coin will help in determining whether it is a miniature (22k gold) or real St Gaudens $20 gold piece. If what you say is true that it is approximately 3/8" in diamater, then it is likely a miniature, as the $20 St Gaudens is 34mm in diameter which is 1.335 inches. Based on your facts it would be a miniature. If you are in doubt as a seller, weighing the coin may help you out in your future auctions. Like Joe185 said, the Franklin Mint made a lot of the miniatures several years ago. Since the quality is not very good, the value is what you are willing to pay. Big difference between plated and real gold.

For some information about the real St Gaudens $20 gold, checkout some information at
https://www.goldline.com/product-catalog/20-saint-gaudens-gold-coin

Some suggestions for future use: You might consider including in your title, when you know absolutely the authenticity of the coin, state that the coin is authentic. IE: Title: Authentic 1907 $20 St Gaudens coin. Include in your description that the coin has been checked by a reputable dealer.

Your disclaimer for this auction- keeps you out of trouble. As you make no claims as to it's authenticity.

Good luck with this auction and all future ones.

I tried to get a better pic with my camera but it came out the same. I thank you for all this info on my coin. I was not able to see any marks on the back side of the coin that gave a mark like 24K but my eyes are not that good.

Jan 9th, 2016 at 5:39:34 AM PST by

I like it any way

Jan 7th, 2016 at 10:06:55 AM PST by

Jan 8th, 2016 at 3:13:15 AM PST by

Jan 6th, 2016 at 5:46:59 AM PST by

good luck on your bid and thank you

Jan 6th, 2016 at 7:00:42 AM PST by

It's a real mini St. Gaudens $20 piece, it's 22k gold

Jan 5th, 2016 at 5:19:03 PM PST by

I thought it might be because it was taped to a small card that said that

Jan 6th, 2016 at 5:35:44 AM PST by

Sorry at work can not wait on answer

Jan 5th, 2016 at 7:59:27 AM PST by

sorry also had lots of work listing furniture and Motorcycle on craigslist and I type with 2 fingers--LOL

Jan 5th, 2016 at 3:28:13 PM PST by

Ok I already placed a bid on the coin so am I right it's not real and so on ????? Thank you

Jan 5th, 2016 at 7:56:43 AM PST by

It could be real gold and could also be plated buy I never had it tested and should have done so because if it is real gold the coin would be worth tons of money by Ebay coins like mine and I should have posted GIN

Jan 5th, 2016 at 3:27:00 PM PST by

Collector_Rick,
Please message me. I would like to know why you blocked me. I do believe that you may have took something i said out of context. Thanks.

Jan 4th, 2016 at 3:24:21 PM PST by

never blocked you and never seen a post from you

Jan 4th, 2016 at 3:35:10 PM PST by

Wut do you have, I hope something my Fathers gonna like...

Jan 4th, 2016 at 11:22:40 AM PST by

I will go through the coins and let you know

Jan 4th, 2016 at 3:13:25 PM PST by

3/8" is way too small for a $20 gold piece so I would say this is a collectors miniature as the design is very crude

Jan 4th, 2016 at 11:15:25 AM PST by

yes it is a Mini coin

Jan 4th, 2016 at 3:13:58 PM PST by

Fake ; not a real US coin. It may be gold or gold plated but who knows

Jan 4th, 2016 at 11:13:20 AM PST by

I don't know if it is a fake and that's why I tell people to judge it for them self but it was attached to a small info card the said it was a $20.00 gold coin and I had my doubts but I bought all these coins at an Estate sale and the box was loaded with about 300 coins

Jan 4th, 2016 at 3:17:54 PM PST by

So can I get the coin sir ???

Jan 4th, 2016 at 9:18:46 AM PST by

yes you can get the coin if you place your bid at the price you quote
