That depends on why you want it. If you want it because its cheap, then $25. If you want it because you like it, then $40.

I won the blue box lol, more to come, you have to see this thing before/if I tear it out.

From the pictures, it looks like a crude early 70's attempt to preserve/display the coin.

I have never seen anything like this, and hope to never again LOL,dude really did some photo work on this. Here are the real clear pictures. Looks like the ole gal is a leper!

The box however is what fascinated me for whatever reason. Its not glued in, pops right out. I may put one of my sliders in it, and throw it back LOL.

Not a fan, sorry.
But if you didn't pay too much for it, it's fine.

Coin is an absolute lock MS63 . These type of snap lock holders were in common use during the 1960 s .
Often found at department store coin shops and kiosks .
You will most often see 1964 Kennedy halves in a holder like this.

I can see this lady laying face down under a rug on a concrete floor and forgotten there for a while where a little traffic scuffed her up. Too bad because its very detracting. ms63 details.
