Stutzman108 Valued Member United States 140 Posts	Posted 05/01/2012 11:20 pm Picked this one up for $6.50, not sure if that was a good price or not. My guess is AU 50, perhaps higher? Report this Post to the Staff

biggfredd Rest in Peace United States 9104 Posts	Posted 05/02/2012 12:11 am Nice coin, about a $4 item. If that's the most you ever overpay, you're doing great. Report this Post to the Staff
CaptainFwiffo Pillar of the Community United States 4132 Posts	Posted 05/02/2012 12:48 am Grade depends a lot on luster which you can't see with a scan. I'd say it's better than AU50, maybe 53 or 55. I agree with biggfredd on the price. Report this Post to the Staff
jmkendall Pillar of the Community United States 1590 Posts	Posted 05/02/2012 11:40 am I agree about 3 to 4 dollars is what I pay for 40s mercs in that condition...but it may be a weak strike...the Rev looks MS to me. This is one that you would have to see in hand to grade properly. Report this Post to the Staff
CaptainFwiffo Pillar of the Community United States 4132 Posts	Posted 05/02/2012 12:13 pm Weak strikes are common enough for '41-P, but I think there is a little wear because the bottom set of bands is merged. If the strike is weak enough to cause that, there is usually other signs of a really weak strike, like the lower diagonal band being flat or weaker peripheral lettering. Report this Post to the Staff
