RedRaider Pillar of the Community United States 1021 Posts	Posted 04/11/2015 5:02 pm These are some of the most fun coins to cherry pick, I have found about five or six of these in local shops throughout the Southeast. My favorite one was a "dateless flying eagle I got for $4. The date was worn off, but the only detail that really remained was on the clash area. Keep your eyes open for the rarer 25c clashed reverse and the ultra rare $20 obverse clash for the same date. Report this Post to the Staff

SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 04/11/2015 5:12 pm Snag. Value is difficult to estimate because they're available in high Mint State, so it's hard to tell what demand would be like down in that grade range. I do feel safe in saying it would be significantly higher than what you paid. Report this Post to the Staff

SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 04/12/2015 06:52 am I think I'm OK with F-12 for it. Report this Post to the Staff
