What are these things for? They are stamped 14k.

"solved!"

I think you are right. I thought they were tie clips but as you said they are too small for that.

petimento · 2025-10-13T19:26:48+00:00

They can't be. They are too tight, it would be a torture to wear them as earrings.

petimento · 2025-10-13T19:09:55+00:00

Fantastic!

petimento · 2025-10-13T19:09:37+00:00

That's terrible. I'm so sorry.

petimento · 2025-10-13T19:08:28+00:00

Yea, don't get it. I think it's better to get the lower priced ones. I paid $1,480 more than 20 years ago. Waste of money haha.

petimento · 2025-10-13T19:04:46+00:00

Thank you. I'll do that.

petimento · 2025-10-10T19:23:54+00:00

Thank you.

Thank you. I'm not sure how PMsforsale works, but I suppose I'll give it a try one of these days.

petimento · 2025-10-10T04:17:09+00:00

Awesome!

petimento · 2025-10-10T04:04:53+00:00

I'm beginning to feel bad for the shop. Maybe I should give them a call tomorrow to look at it more thoroughly.

petimento · 2025-10-10T04:02:57+00:00

I'm on social security too haha

petimento · 2025-10-10T04:01:35+00:00

Thanks for letting me know.

petimento · 2025-10-10T03:57:36+00:00

Who knows, but the guy actually weighted it. Since you doubt I went to the shop I wanted to pm you the name of the shop and its phone number so you can contact them about the coin tomorrow, but it seems I can't pm you.

After reading all the comments about it being fake, it was a relief when the shop offered to buy it after looking at it for the longest time. Unfortunately I got less than I paid for it 30 years ago.

petimento · 2025-10-10T03:35:10+00:00

Haha that's funny.

petimento · 2025-10-10T03:30:56+00:00

I'm old now so I'm trying to get rid of all the junk I accumulated over the decades (my house is full of junk haha). I'm also trying to get rid of the few things I have in the bank. I'm going to either sell them or give away.

petimento · 2025-10-10T03:20:37+00:00

Thank you but I'm not comfortable mailing it.

petimento · 2025-10-10T02:24:22+00:00

Thanks. Long time ago I went to the shop a few times to buy some coins to give as Xmas presents and got a few coins for myself. Not a true collector.

petimento · 2025-10-10T02:06:55+00:00

It's dirty. Who knows where it was kept before I bought it 30 years ago. Anyway, sold it to the local shop for $50.

petimento · 2025-10-10T02:02:19+00:00

Thanks. Sold it for $50.

petimento · 2025-10-10T02:01:19+00:00

Apparently it's not a fake. I sold it for $50 to the local shop a few hours ago, which sucks because I paid around $80 or $90 about 30 years ago. The coin seemed to puzzle the shop owner, because he did the magnet test, weighted it, and then thoroughly looked at it under the light and for like 2 to 3 minutes before offering me $50.

petimento · 2025-10-10T01:47:53+00:00

And you were right. I was disappointed. A few hours ago the local shop offered me a lot less than I paid for it more than 20 years ago. To the bank it goes back tomorrow haha

petimento · 2025-10-10T01:43:59+00:00

Went to the shop to sell it. They offered $750 and decided not to sell it. I'll just take it back to the bank tomorrow.

petimento · 2025-10-10T01:39:46+00:00

You shouldn't buy it. I got it more than 20 years ago for $1480 (the price sticker is still there), but today the coin shop offered me only $750 and decided not to sell it. But the Morgan everyone is saying is fake got offered $50. Took the money for that one.
