Title: 1882 $20 Gold "Double Eagle" Coin
Post by: 50monarch on October 03, 2013, 11:23:57 am

Hi;

Looking for some information on the following coin.  I know it is from the San Francisco mint and there were 1.125 million minted, but what I would like to know what you guys feel would be the grade of the coin.  I certainly am not good at grading.  Also, would anyone have the book value for this coin.  My coworker inherited this coin and she has asked me to do a little research.  I see various values online for the same grade (say VG-8) but I am curious if someone actually has the US equivalent to "Charlton" book value.  Thanks so much!

I can't seem to post the pictures - I will have to do this at home...the work security may be prohibiting me from posting.
