I'm pretty new to the world of decimal as my primary focus has been to complete a NCLT commemorative silver dollar collection. I thought I'd start with the large cents in as high a grade as my wallet (and wife) can tolerate.

So I'd like to know if I pulled the trigger too soon on this.. I just bought a 1919 Large Cent graded by PCGS as MS65RB for $50 on that big auction site. The price seemed very very reasonable, but maybe there's something I'm overlooking. I probably should get a CCN subscription for the trends..

Seriously? I had a feeling it was a good buy. What's considered average price/market value for most graded coins? 1/2 trend?

That is wrong. That is the retail price if your coin was MS-65 Red (and your coin is Red-Brown). 1919 is a common date, your coin is worth about the same as a MS-64 Red would be, maybe a bit more ($125 retail at the most). When it comes to large cents, buyers are picky with colour, and Red-Brown coins are hard to sell.
