pawnsnatcherr New Member 6 Posts	Posted 08/18/2019 3:08 pm I got this Benji Half at a pawnshop for 8 dollars, but it wasn't marked as a proof, so I got it for 8 dollars... Is it a proof? and If it is, would this go for higher than I paid? Report this Post to the Staff

pawnsnatcherr New Member 6 Posts	Posted 08/18/2019 3:52 pm So, according to the web, if it's true that it's a proof, is it indeed worth 200$? Report this Post to the Staff
GrapeCollects Pillar of the Community United States 8939 Posts	Posted 08/18/2019 4:05 pm Not worth $200, no. But it is a proof. I'd estimate a $15 value for this one. Report this Post to the Staff

Gincoin43 Pillar of the Community United States 1543 Posts	Posted 08/18/2019 4:40 pm Looks to be a proof but that toning is ugly. I'd say just under40$. I don't sell halves though, I just hoard them. Report this Post to the Staff
