What Would You Pay? Large Cents

Define...almost completely filled.
Define...Good condition.

Large cents can be an interesting set to collect, especially the Victorian years. Depending on your definition of good, most of the value will be found in the Victorian coins. 1901 and earlier, except the 1907H. There are a lot of varieties to collect in the early years. But it is important to know what dates are missing. The 1859 repunched and re-engraved dates can be valuable, but be careful because a lot of people fill those holes with regular 1859. A regular 1859 is only worth a couple of bucks in average condition. So, back to DBM,s comment, what coins are missing? and what are the grades like?

Thanks...

When I say they're in good condition.... http://www.coinoisseur.com/GradingCoins.html
To give an understanding as to what I consider good.. like G4 to F 12...

I don't collect large cents... although I like 'em... I've made more of a decision to go for quality these days than quantity and just pick one or two pieces a year to help complete my current collections.

This person and I would consider them a friend came to me... so I wanted to see what was a fair reasonable offer.. I had looked at coinscanada web site after the fact, but to me there's also something to be said about getting it all in one set. I personally like looking for one coin at a time, the thrill of the hunt.. but I know sometimes when just starting a new collection it's sometimes better to get a bunch and then build up from there...improving on what you have.

Thanks for the input the $5 for the Vic's and $1 each the others was close to what I was thinking

complete set incl 1858, $200-250 without 1858, $150 - 175

@ Shaft I think he is. Same numbers I was going to put out as well. Those numbers are ebay numbers over the past year.
