The number of colonials I see at shows seems to be strongly declining in recent years. Yet, when I do encounter ones in comparable condition, they typically sell for $40 - $50. Many colonial coppers were struck off-center, so that doesn't tend to enhance the value. Indeed, well-centered pieces with pleasing planchets tend to command a premium.

You're right on with 38-c. Here's a pic of a c-reverse that illustrates well where the denticles point relative to the letters. See where the denticles are above the I and U in PLURIBUS?
