Rollsearcher37 Pillar of the Community United States 1295 Posts	Posted 12/02/2014 8:57 pm I recently came across this coin, a small motto 2 cent piece. I haven't bought it yet, but am interested in doing so. I just wanted to check in and see what everyone thinks on what a reasonable price would be. Do you think the couple of scratches, weak strike in spots, and little bit of gunk between United and States really affects the value? I don't think the guy on the auction site knows that this is a small motto. I won't say what he has it on for until I get some input, but I personally think it's pretty under-priced. Everyone's opinions on this coin are welcome. Report this Post to the Staff

nohope587 Pillar of the Community United States 5953 Posts	Posted 12/02/2014 9:11 pm It will not grade with a TPG or at least it will come back with a details grade. Its porous and corroded.. I would not pay more than G4 money for it. Report this Post to the Staff
kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 12/03/2014 08:42 am IF it had original surfaces I'd try to get it for $250 but wouldn't complain at $300. That's based upon a grade of VG. BUT As noted above it appears NOT to have original surfaces. I don't buy DETAILS/Genuine coins so I wouldn't buy it. It's the sort of coin each person would have to decide what they would be willing to pay. CERTAINLY not more than $125. Report this Post to the Staff

edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 12/03/2014 6:38 pm I'd buy it in a second if the price was right. Surfaces aren't too bad. Even see a small die crack a 11 o'clock over the 2. Report this Post to the Staff
jdmern Pillar of the Community United States 1949 Posts	Posted 12/03/2014 6:43 pm I agree, it would come back details but is still a nice looking coin nonetheless. If the price was right I would certainly scoop it up Boardwalk Numismatics http://stores.ebay.com/jdmern/ https://boardwalknumismatics.com Report this Post to the Staff
