I had that coin in my watch list, but was working and forgot all about it. Glad someone here got it that will appreciate it. It is a cool RPD and a pretty nice looking coin IMO. Not a killer deal but a fair price under $32.00 was where I was thinking.

$26 for a large cent like this is a good deal IMO.

Yea I wouldnt necessarily call $26 "top dollar". I have seen countless large cents in retail settings that looked far worse priced between $25-$35.

imo= In-MY-opinion. For me $25 would have been top dollar, jerry got a nice coin at a fair price, but at "top dollar" for ME.

Irrelevant. I could ask $100 for a coin...does not mean it is worth it.....

Grellman's book ID's that coin as a nice N-1.
I let the others grade it.

Amida, point taken. I think it was just the term "top dollar" that confused me. All is good.
