VG. You should be able to pick one up in a TPG holder for under $200. So don't waste your money on that one. |

Looks cleaned and way too expensive. I'd avoid that coin.
I think I paid about $180 for mine and it looks a lot like the certified on shown above.
Hang in there, Rob. You will find a nice one eventually.

Perfect example of " condition is everything " , With some searching and patience you can obviously find a VG for under $200.
I happen to think the one you were looking at was nicer than VG.
Just for reference PCGS values an F12 at $380, NGC at $360, Numismedia wholesale at $250, Retail at $300, HA places an auction value at $210-$270 (before BP).

Looks VG Cleaned. Valued at $200 max. I wouldn't pay any more than that. You should be able to easily find a comparable problem-free example for a lower price on ebay. Edited by zxcccxz

I have the auction coin at a near-prototypical VG10, and priced at close to double its' value.

Thanks guys! I had a feeling it was a bit over-priced. The romantic 'Wild West' association tends to push up the price of Morgans over here - you see common dates in AU for about £30, and 1964 JFK halves are also heavily hyped and go for about £10 - but if you're lucky you can pick up large cents and decent Buffalo nickels in junk trays.. |

My first impression on the coin was "fake". While the coin may be real and everything, it's cleaning makes it look fake.
