Description

The listing, **Coin Necklace** has ended.

Ok I know absolutely nothing about this necklace except that the person that gave it to me said it was real but it has NO markings that states it is. I took the best pics I could & they wont get any better lol I tried everything!! The front has a womans head in the center & stars going around it. The back says The United States of America around the rim, a big #1 with the word Dollar under it and 1962 under that.and some kind of floral/leaf design around the center. The coin is about the size of a dime. The necklace looks gold toned to me but the coin looks real but like I said I have no idea lol eather way its a very nice peice and would be good for a collecter & PLEASE if u know anything about this do share and if the winner finds anything about it I would love to know even if I amgettin rid of it.
GOOD LUCK & HAPPY BIDDING :))

Just for reference sake. if real, when minted this coin weighed 0.048375. it was 90% gold. i'll let you do the math on the current gold price. nice nice item !!!

if it is and it seems like a real 1 dollar gold piece their are 31 grams of gold to an ounce this would be worth pretty good money. but i believe the coin value is worth more than the gold. ! owell coffee time

yeah me to now lol but its 2 late 4 me!!

Mar 23rd, 2011 at 11:52:00 AM PDT by

Yes, I agree it is beautiful, I meant no offense, after all we want it as jewelry, not as a coin for a coin collection, there loss not ours!

Mar 22nd, 2011 at 11:59:44 PM PDT by

Its ok none taken,, but im findin out it may be my loss lol

Mar 23rd, 2011 at 11:52:46 AM PDT by

Could be the reason the necklace don't have any markings on it because somebody could have made it themself. For all we know it could be the only coin like it left and it wouldn't matter if it had a hole in it. Ya know! Wishful thinking maybe!

Mar 22nd, 2011 at 9:56:39 PM PDT by

Thanks :))

Mar 23rd, 2011 at 11:53:14 AM PDT by

What did the coin look like before it was cleaned? Was it green at all, or just grimey?

Mar 22nd, 2011 at 3:35:15 PM PDT by

It was not green at all honestly it looked about as good as it does now, cleaning it just added a little shine I guess lol

Mar 23rd, 2011 at 11:48:20 AM PDT by

Even if it was real it's got a hole in it and it's been cleaned, so people should really just treat it as a nice necklace. The $300 price I gave was a for a collectors quality coin, not this. I still think this is really nice and hope I can win it. Need more credits.

Mar 22nd, 2011 at 3:20:19 PM PDT by

Good Luck hun!!

Mar 23rd, 2011 at 11:53:57 AM PDT by

this is great wish i had the credits but fanned you!!

Mar 22nd, 2011 at 2:21:35 PM PDT by

aww sorry but thanks 4 tha fan!!

Mar 23rd, 2011 at 11:49:05 AM PDT by

maybe they meant the coin on the necklace was real? ha idk, just a guess

Mar 18th, 2011 at 1:20:17 PM PDT by

maybe ,, thats what I was thinking anyway since the necklace had noo markings on it

Mar 18th, 2011 at 1:49:46 PM PDT by

How thick is the coin? Like compared to a dime, penny, or nickel?

Mar 22nd, 2011 at 9:50:59 AM PDT by

dime

Mar 22nd, 2011 at 11:20:19 AM PDT by

Yes, the hole in the coin does diminish it's numismatic value, the collectors value as an old coin. It's still nice though.

Mar 22nd, 2011 at 9:49:56 AM PDT by

Mar 22nd, 2011 at 11:20:37 AM PDT by

I'm not sure ladies, but, I think if the coin has a hole in it, it doesn't matter how old it is, it's value is diminished. I can't be positive about that....but, still and all it's a beautiful coin to own....

Mar 21st, 2011 at 9:19:13 PM PDT by

maybe so maybe not,, I hav no idea as ive said so many many times b4... its a chance the winner will hav 2 take i guess cause im clueless but i do know my stepmoms mad at me 4 listin it cause she said it wasnt cheap but she didnt know anything bout it either so ther ya go

Mar 22nd, 2011 at 11:26:42 AM PDT by

I'm just trying to figure out now if it's real or a replica. Either way it's nice, but it makes a difference.

Mar 21st, 2011 at 2:50:32 PM PDT by

well as ive stated many many times it was a gift and theres no way 4 me 2 find out sorry

Mar 22nd, 2011 at 11:24:01 AM PDT by

So, you are confident the coin is real? What did it look like before you cleaned it?

Mar 21st, 2011 at 2:49:54 PM PDT by

I am NOT possitive about anything as i said before it was given to me and I know nothing about it

Mar 22nd, 2011 at 11:22:38 AM PDT by

*************** incase no one read the comments the coin says 1862 not 19!!!!***************************

Mar 21st, 2011 at 8:36:53 AM PDT by

On the clasp is the chain stamped anything real small?

Mar 20th, 2011 at 7:37:16 PM PDT by

I dont think so,, like I said b4 I dnt beleive the chains real

Mar 21st, 2011 at 8:32:46 AM PDT by

Yay, I just bid and am the high bidder. So, if nobody else placed a bid I could possibly win this LOL

Mar 20th, 2011 at 7:36:17 PM PDT by

Good Luck!

Mar 21st, 2011 at 8:33:04 AM PDT by

I would LOVE to win this, but am afraid I won't have as many credits as I would need to win. This is a lovely necklace and coin :)

Mar 20th, 2011 at 5:15:39 PM PDT by

Thanks hun and who knows maybe u still will! Think possitive :))

Mar 21st, 2011 at 8:33:59 AM PDT by

The coin is a Liberty Head gold dollar design. These were minted between 1849 and 1889. If it's a real 1862 one it could be worth over $300. If it's a replica, it's worth about $5. If the date says 1962 it's definitely a replica. If it says 1862 it could be real OR a replica. Even if it is real, it looks cleaned. A nice necklace regardless.

Mar 18th, 2011 at 5:06:11 PM PDT by

OMG!!!!!! lol I think im going to be sick lol!!! IT DOES SAY 1862 are u kidding me? I could be giving away $300 dollars LOL dangit!!!! & I cant stop this auction lol o-well It should go 2 someone who will appreciate it enough to research it anyway I guess <like u maybe> thanks so much for the info!! Oh and I had just cleaned it myself b4 the pics & my stepmom gave it 2 me a while back and said it was real and I think she got it from a flea market or something like that... WoW lol I cant stop laughing lol

Mar 20th, 2011 at 1:14:22 AM PDT by

Are you sure it says 1962 and not 1862?
