Conder, Johnny, and Philadelphian,

Thank you very much for your replies and assistance.

They are two gems in my collection and I wish they could talk!

I know that normally a Details grade significantly reduces the value of most coins but it does not seem to affect the pre-1800 coins as much.

Many of the large cents available appear to have the same environmental damage as these two do.

What is normally a fair deduction price wise for the surface damage?

Hi all,

A potential new purchase popped up and I may have to move both Large Cents.

I am torn on doing this but the funds would go into something that would be very hard to replace if I were to pass on it.

Other than ebay, what are my best venues?

-Please don't think this is a post trolling for offers, I am just hoping for help and guidance-

When it comes to pricing, how badly does a Details grade effect value?

Thank you for your help,

Vinnie

Heritage Auctions - which is where the Wreath really ought to go, as I doubt you'd find ebay buyers in that price range - moved a very similar coin (PCGS Genuine, VF details) last November at $4112.50. Likewise, something similar to your 1794 fetched just over $600 earlier this month.

This is stuff which does not move well outside the major auction houses. You *might* be able to contact EAC member/dealers for their opinion and possible sales interest, understanding there'd be a concession to their profit margin.
