Newbie here-- Help appraise my coins or a link to where I can... (Gold coins)
 

I think I got shafted. Anyone who 'knows' will probably cringe when I
say I bought from Lear Financial.....

Anyhow, I have 6 $10 coins ( all NGC graded at MS63 with the shiny
hologram and all, and 3 $2 1/2 coins graded at MS61.)

Here's what I have...first the $10's....

1893 -no mint mark
1894 -no mint mark
1900 -no mint mark
1901- no mint mark ( quantity 2)
1906 -D

and the $2 1/2's....
1908- no mint mark
1912 -no mint mark
1929- no mint mark



From what I gather, I paid a fair amount too much. Not the worst
ripoff in the world, but gold better go up quite a bit !

If anyone has the time and expertise, I'd appreciate at least some
ballpark guesses. I checked PCGS and their prices are waaaay lower
than what I paid. I'd just like to know how bad, if at all, I got
shafted....

So , if you have the time and the ability, I'd appreciate it quite
alot.

Thanks for any help. ( values, ideas, links, etc...)

I don't have my grey sheets in front of me (Dealer price lists), but if you
go to a dealer, you'll get WAY less then the PCGS prices. Try looking them
up on eBAy and see what recent examples have sold for.

What city and state are you in, maybe we can send you to someone for a fair
appraisal.
