$10 at a Chicago area coin show last week. Think it is worth getting slabbed?

A great buy. I'd grade is Good-6, trends price of around $60. Would probably go for $50ish on ebay.

The guy had 2 other 25's (one of the last ones I needed) of similar condition and prices that I was thinking of buying as well but another guy was looking at the same set of stuff I was and wanted them. Since he was there first he got them and I got this one. I also got a half dozen 1800's large cents, a bunch of silver 5c and a couple dimes to fill in some holes.

I wish he had a 23 small cent, 1858 and 1891 large cents, I could have completed my Cents collection! For large Nickels I only need a tombac 42, a 51 Low Relief and a few 2000's to fill those books.

I wish I had access to dealers who don't know anything about non-American coins!

Excellent purchase. Sadly, Canadian key dates will never be worth as much as their friends the American key dates, even with much lower mintages.

It's all supply and demand. Canada has roughly a tenth the population of the USA, therefore a similar smaller amount of collectors looking for coins. If 10 people are competing for a coin the price goes up quite a bit. If only 1 person wants it the price is less...
