Paulsz Pillar of the Community Canada 2187 Posts	Posted 02/24/2015 09:50 am VF details for me as well. Narrow 9 variety. It's worth something like 5$, but you might get a bit more on ebay. I've seen them go for a little more than book price lately, so maybe $8 Report this Post to the Staff

Normic67 Pillar of the Community 798 Posts	Posted 02/28/2015 07:08 am Would that be the result of a weak strike I have a VF-30 graded coin and it looks nothing like the large penny. When I picture that penny in my head in VF-30 and then I take off half of its grade to 15 it fits right in. Its gotta be at least a 20 Report this Post to the Staff

BoroLeColon New Member Canada 49 Posts	Posted 02/28/2015 11:23 am I would say it can be easily VF-20. Also I was wondering I can see that the nine is low, but how low does it need to be to be a low 9? And on ebay lately you can have a better price than the books( I sold many and was surprised how high it went up). Report this Post to the Staff
