jerseyben Pillar of the Community United States 1211 Posts	Posted 07/03/2013 4:20 pm I found a Fugio here locally priced at $75. The detail would be AG with a partial date visible. The surfaces appear to have been polished or rubbed but not whizzed or anything dramatic. No other problems to speak of like corrosion or such. Is this a buy at $75? I am contemplating getting back in my car and heading over there now to buy it. Edited by jerseyben 07/03/2013 4:20 pm Report this Post to the Staff

philadelphian Pillar of the Community United States 3253 Posts	Posted 07/03/2013 5:51 pm What, are you starting an Orphans' Home for Wayward Lowball Fugios? I believe there's no such thing as a bad Fugio, but no idea what they're going for. Report this Post to the Staff

jerseyben Pillar of the Community United States 1211 Posts	Posted 07/03/2013 8:00 pm Haha Philly! No, just expanding my copper collection. These bad boys tend to be pricy so I am just being "penny wise". It has taken me some time to play around with different coins and I am finally settling on early American coins and such. At this point, anything in the 1700s for under $100 is almost an auto-buy for me. I also don't tend to buy coins on ebay so when I find something in person, I tend to "pounce".
