paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 09/01/2015 10:29 pm Possible bid. Pretty rough, but I have it around G6 (Details, scratches obv). Obverse is much darker than the reverse. Unusual. Overdate clearly visible. FMV on a G4 is $210, seller wants $179. I am thinking that's too much by about $79. Thoughts? Or am I being unreasonable to make such an offer? Thanks.

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 09/02/2015 12:42 am LOL. Best offer was (very swiftly) declined (I offered a rather generous $100.) On to the next one!

vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 09/02/2015 01:58 am The problem with Classic Head Large Cents is finding them original. The 1811/0 is one of the tougher ones and problem free are even harder. This one is close to problem free but not. Surfaces are a little questionable and like you mentioned..the scratch. $120 would have been my highest offer. I suspect he would have killed that as well. $130-140 is my guess as to what he has in it for that BIN. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 09/03/2015 8:52 pm Seller relisted it. I don't think he will get any hits at 179. I felt my offer of 100 was more than generous. Other fish in the sea, indeed... Member ANA - EAC - TNA - SSDC - CCT #890 "Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossible before they were done." -- Louis D.
