mdpmedia Pillar of the Community United States 3546 Posts	Posted 07/05/2012 1:24 pm Hi, Here's another yard sale find from last week. Please give me, 1) the grade, 2) whether or not a variety exists here and 3) what sort of ebay resale price could one expect to receive Thanks, mdpmedia Report this Post to the Staff

kuh_85 Pillar of the Community Canada 2366 Posts	Posted 07/05/2012 2:18 pm Sorry, I'm not that good at grading. Maybe a VF20-EF40? Check the pictures here: http://www.coinsandcanada.com/coins...ictoria&id=8 A VF20 would list at $100 and an EF40 at $190 as per here: http://www.coinsandcanada.com/coins...ts-1858-1901 There are no major or minor varieties listed for this denomination and year but it is one of the rarer dates. Nice find! Report this Post to the Staff
Senex Valued Member 291 Posts	Posted 07/05/2012 2:43 pm I'd say VF. Poor eye appeal and gouge marks on obverse (unless they are just more toning) keep me from grading it any higher. Mintage of 500K make it one of the scarcer issues. Latest Charlton has a VF20 price of $75 but I wouldn't expect to realize that price on ebay. Report this Post to the Staff
kitkat1858 Valued Member Canada 371 Posts	Posted 07/12/2012 12:27 pm I would price it as a F-12 Report this Post to the Staff
SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10460 Posts	Posted 07/12/2012 12:54 pm Very dark toning, which does not help the eye-appeal, but all the elements of the design are there. I would grade that coin as VF-30. Good find.
