Sschmidt30 Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Is this the high mint mark? If so, how much is it worth and should I send it in to get graded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Bob Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I seem to recall there being two different varieties with the mint mark placed next to the "5" like that. (A "high D" and a "higher D" ? Or maybe a "high D" and a "not-so-high D"?) The one that NGC has listed as FS-401 is the higher of the two, I believe. It appears to match your coin. This one actually did bring a premium at one time, since it was also listed in the Red Book. It may, still - I do not keep up with these. I am not sure how many collectors would want to buy one as beat up as that one, but it is pretty cool to find one in the wild. Do some looking on Ebay at sold certified examples, and you should be able to tell if it would be worth the money to have yours graded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
