Had you been at the Florida FUN show last January (somebody was), that sum plus $11 at the Heritage Auction would have bought you an example in PCGS F15 with some full letters and you could have walked out with it in your pocket. In this market, I do not see the coin pictured here as a $400 piece. Nice? Yes. $400? No.
This is a great time to be hunting keys, whether you collect them or not. Not necessarily "buying," with the implication that you're going to scarf whatever you can find, but "hunting" with the understanding that *some* really nice pieces are going for prices you probably won't see again soon
I urge all involved in this discussion to visualize whatever you say here as happening in the context of a conversation with someone you've never met, over a couple cups of coffee at Dunkin' Donuts, where everyone can hear what you're saying. It's the greatest fallacy of the Internet; you can talk without seeing the eyes or body language of your partner in conversation. It's remarkable just how important that aspect is, isn't it?
