You need to send them an additional $100.
Or, better yet, send it to me, and I will see that this matter is taken care of .

Bingo

I don't see doubling anywhere, and I don't know what a "trail die" is.
Remember: there are fewer participants on this forum than most other coin forums, and that sometimes means longer wait times to get answers to your questions.

Lisa, I have the feeling that the title of this thread will attract the attention of a lot of people doing internet searches. For the benefit of future readers, would you mind explaining the term "netted"?

Great coin and a great memento. I really like the custom label.

You're welcome!

Each of these Peace dollars is graded MS65 or MS66. All show flatness and extreme lack of detail on the highest points, which looks very much like wear.
It is true that the OP's coin shows very little detail in the hair, but I believe it is merely an example of an especially weak strike, and is technically uncirculated. Just my, opinion, of course.

Central High School in Jackson, MS was built in 1923. Author Eudora Welty was an alumnus. The building is now being use by the Dept of Education.
 

Although this is actually more a commemorative medal, rather than a token, it is included in the Chatham book on Mississippi tokens, so I am including it here.
This piece was issued to celebrate President Taft's visit to Vicksburg in October 1909, during his tour of the States.
Although most tokens I encounter are worn or even damaged, I may pick them up if the money is right, since I may not get another chance to own one. This one is no exception. It looks like it was carried as a pocket piece, and took a serious hit on what is considered the obverse - the side picturing the issuing bank. I don't always worry about upgrading my less-than-stellar pieces, but I would like to find a nicer example of this one. It is listed as an R8 (4-5 pieces known), but I always take those estimates with a grain of salt. More likely, there are 6-8 pieces, possibly a few more. This is the only one I have seen in the last 10 or more years.
 
 
 

1901 10c Reverse 2 "thin ribbon" PCGS MS64, just arrived. This is the less common variety for 1901-P, roughly 10-20% of the mintage, with Barber adding the "thick ribbon" for Reverse 3 somewhere around April 1901.
I'm almost sad in a way, because this it the last one I wanted for the less common transition varieties of Barber dimes, 1899-1905. I spent a year and a half on it.

I still think you need to buy a Red Book.
And, it looks circulated to me, so I would grade it AU.

Charles E Abell was granted a certificate as a registered pharmacist after passing his examination on Nov, 1 1892. He opened a drug store in 1895, taking up residence at 510 Phoenix St. South Haven, MI. By 1898 he was also owner of the Fruit Belt Chemical Company which manufactured fruit juices for soda fountains, and the Home Remedy Co. which produced all manner of concoctions for sale at his drug store. The abbreviations or alternative spellings on tokens can be a bit of a challenge sometimes, but one of my favorite things to find is old advertisements for the store that the token is associated with.




 

It's The Black Spot.

Doesn't seem to be working in the case of recent Silver Eagles:

Take a look at this article on the difference between doubled dies and machine doubling:\

All right, "roll searchers." Time to turn those coins back in to the bank.
From the local Lowe's store this evening:
 

Clarence Hossley operated a billiard room inside the Carroll Hotel in Vicksburg 1911-1912. There were two types of 5 cent tokens issued: one with a center hole, and one without. Both were brass, and both are rare. I have an example of the holed variety:

We found this monument while hunting ghost towns in Wyoming several years ago. I found it interesting that St. Gaudens was the sculptor.

The Denver minted SC quarters are not some of the more scarce or higher priced coins in  MS68, the highest grade at NGC, and the number graded can only increase, so I don't think the chances of the coins soaring in value is very good. Your only chance of a big score is to find an MS69, or some variety, and that can only happen if you open the bag.

Excellent post. Your collection is stunning!

Those marks do not make any sense to me. What are they supposed to be indicating?

Welcome to the forum, and may I say "good job" on doing such thorough research. It looks as though you have pretty much answered your own question: The above companies' retail prices tend to be high, CDN is the dealer wholesale (low end, and what we would like to pay for all of our coins), and actual prices realized are your best indicator of what you should reasonably expect to pay for a coin. As far as how the companies determine prices, I have no clue, but it does not appear to be from following Ebay auctions.
Do you have any local coin shops or nearby coin shows? A friendly relationship with a local dealer can be a good thing, and dealers at shows are often willing to negotiate if things are slow.
By the way, we like pictures.

Congrats! All of your looking and studying is paying off.
