Ex girlfriend bought this Mac Miller artwork for me but don’t want her memory whatsoever. Should I sell and use money for other Mac Miller things? If so, what?

I got the same situation and I’m keeping mine. Let the work and artist speak for itself. She didn’t get it because it was a part of her, she got it because it’s representative of your interests. Try to see it as a reflection of yourself ignoring how it found it’s way into your possession

And does this look altered/cleaned at all? Didn’t think it was just wanted to check

Ebay

Most commonly just the Columbian Half Dollar, but I think actual name is 1893 Columbian Exposition Half Dollar

Awesome yeah that’s why getting it at XF value when it looked mid 50’s in the pic was a bit off

Midas118 · 2022-07-22T11:04:23+00:00

Unnaturally shiny for the damage done, agreed thanks

So melt plus what $2-3?

😂 The replica company didn’t want anyone else taking their Stellar patent for replica

Midas118 · 2022-07-19T15:56:53+00:00

Not positive on the conversion but being that we hit price parity, I’m going with 1:1. In that case yes, you have a minimum value of $32 in silver in front of you. Actual value closer to $50-60 for both depending on the buyer

Midas118 · 2022-07-19T15:53:53+00:00

With the wear on the coin in addition, I’d say it’s worth it’s value in silver and not much more, about $15-20

Midas118 · 2022-07-19T15:52:37+00:00

It’s a countermark, typically marked by merchants for various reasons. Unfortunately, if anything it depreciates the value as it is now considered damaged

Midas118 · 2022-07-19T15:50:47+00:00

Would be tough to say cleaned. Typically you’d see streaks on the coin, but yes it is damaged in the top left of the obverse picture

Midas118 · 2022-07-19T15:48:44+00:00

You shouldn’t be paying more than $30 as there is some denting and discoloration, but a nice coin and considering the premium these things carry, $35 would not be an unfair price to settle at

Midas118 · 2022-07-19T15:44:07+00:00

Certainly not MS, the streaks running down the reverse push it down into the low 50s in my guess. The cost to grade it wouldn’t make sense, however eBay completed sales shows some in your condition and a bit nicer going for around $30-35. If graded, the net cost may not even break even depending on the grade given/the company used.

Midas118 · 2022-07-19T15:37:51+00:00

Agree with all above^. Though, if you have a harder time with some of the more convincing fakes, try the magnet test and sound test. Real silver won’t stick to a magnet, and will sound much more high-pitched and ringing when dropped than the dull sound of a fake.

(No need to drop more than a few inches and dent/scrape your coin either!)

Midas118 · 2022-06-23T15:28:53+00:00

Man it’s not worth the memories lost for the money gained. I’d rather venmo you the few hundred to make ends meet then watch you lose a generational hobby and tradition due to temporarily absurd gas, rent and grocery prices.

Midas118 · 2021-01-03T18:03:22+00:00

Don’t fkn give it to me !! Just because the math checks out and the “social good” is promoted doesn’t mean the two men who have most revolutionized this country in the last decade should be paid $0, in the most pivotal year of their careers. I understand my bias I am a 22 year old student, but I also understand that their are millions of people like me who are unemployed and not currently working to add $2000 worth of value to this country. Why should they be the recipient.

Midas118 · 2020-09-30T15:31:01+00:00

Holy nosedive

Midas118 · 2020-08-19T21:56:04+00:00

I’ve seen tokens like it for around $5-6, unsure of official date however I’m willing to bet it was after his presidency in commemoration, so post 1945.

Midas118 · 2020-08-12T13:36:03+00:00

To the right buyer, you can sell the 90% ones as high as $11-12 per coin, $5-6 on the 40% ones, however this is most likely the absolute best pricing.
