Question by bboy244: How can I tell that the silver American Eagles I purchased online prescription drugs on Ebay are real ? I am new to coin collecting.?

Acquire the book before the product. With the influx of counterfeit U.S. coins from CHINA the hobby is getting ruined, because our Government cannot stop these forgeries. Ebay is an open target for these coins (these coins do not have to be stamped COPIES). Again either buy the coin book or check your local library coin section. Weight's & sizes might be the only clue to a fake! Good Luck

coin collection storage1 1999 $25 dollar Proof Gold coin.Is this coin a very rare coin? On Ebay its BuyItNow price is $2,355?
ThaShotCalla asked:

I was recently looking at currency items on Ebay, and I came across a 1999 $25 dollar Proof Gold coin that was for sale, and noticed it had a "Buy It Now" price of $2,355 dollars. I am fairly new to collecting coins, so I was hoping someone could please possibly help me out with a question I had about that coin. Is this coin a "very rare" coin? Is it because it's been graded by chance? Or is it a rare coin as far as the year? I have searched all over the web trying to find this out, and realized several sites that deal in gold coins order prescription drugs had several $25.00 gold coins for sell, but the 1999 coin wasn't available in their lists, they had surrounding years, but skipped 1999. Is this coin a "very rare" coin? I would greatly appreciate your help & response to this, It's driving me crazy trying to find out an honest response by searching the web, It interest me because i believe i may also have this coin in a collection i have in storage, but mine has not been graded. Does having the coin graded greatly increase the value as well? Again, I would really appreciate any help on this, and look forward to your response. I Would Appreciate An Urgent Honest Response!
