How'd I do... At least in my part of the woods any common V on average goes for $ 0.75 at minimum plus tax unless one's tax exempt. That's data coming from local auctions in Ky. |

CHD, You remind me of myself when I was your age. I used to buy coins like that from magazine ads . I cringe when I see stuff like that, IMHO ,save up and buy some decent coins. you'll thank me when you get older. If I'm still above ground.

 I didn't see the point in buying this coin other than to just spend money. |

My LCS charges $0.25 apiece for V nickels My local pawn shop charges $6 for ones more worn than the one you posted  Anyways, I think that there really is no point in selling items on ebay valued under $2. Just not enough profit (unless you are a big coin store with hundreds of single coins on ebay) IMHO., |

It isn't the price, but the dig and the appearance of cleaning that bother me.

I'll throw it in my tube of buffalo/v nickels and when it gets full I'll just sell it as a lot of culls.

I bought a couple of rolls of V-Nickels in this condition at a local estate auction for $9 a roll a few years ago. I'd value them from $0.50 to 0.75 cents each but they are a tough to find the right buyer for. ebay doesn't seem to be a very good venue for these types of coins if selling individually. |

You did Damm good for sure...I do that myself but I know you've beat me with that one. In my defense I got some nice deals but for a bit more money.

Look at the brighter side. In about 200 years you could sell it on ebay for thousands. |

In about 200 years, I'll be dead, ebay probably won't exist, and inflation will be over the roof so $200 will probably be like the equivalence of $0.04 today. Inflation might even be so bad that you'll have to PAY the government money to take it off your hands....  |

But $.76? Whatever I guess. Maybe you should buy 40 V nickels at your coin shop and sell it as a roll on ebay. Then tell us how much it sold for. |
