barryg Pillar of the Community United States 5855 Posts	Posted 01/07/2016 2:38 pm I might be willing to purchase the coin at that price, but only if I was planning on flipping it for a decent profit. I don't exclusively stick to high grade coins for my type album, due to the cost, but I do feel that a bare minimum is to have all distinguishing features visible. In other words, if the distinguishing feature of a specific type coin is that it has a motto on the back, I want to actually be able to see the motto and not just a vague outline of where the motto used to be. So this coin would just be too worn for my taste regardless of the price.

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 01/08/2016 02:51 am Minimum standard for a collectible coin in my collection is F (British) or VF (Sheldon). Severely damaged or low grade coins dissapoint me. I have had a few over the years, but they have all been moved on. Report this Post to the Staff
yelimsexa Valued Member United States 186 Posts	Posted 01/08/2016 08:26 am Cull Seated dollars still sell for below $100, as shown on this PO-1 example for $66: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1871-Seated...047675.l2557 I'd say for borderline AG/G, $100 is a decent price since at least you have a coin with a nearly completed outlined design with a clear date/stars/legend on the obverse, and a nearly full rim. I disagree about VF being lowest collectible since there are many coins in VG or F that have a noticeable premium over AG/G, but I personally consider VG my lowest grade I'd collect (even common Barbers, since VG is still a good budget grade for completing a set).

GR58 Bedrock of the Community United States 11951 Posts	Posted 01/08/2016 09:29 am For me the price has a lot to do with what grade I would like to fill some of those harder holes. Sometimes I don't mind putting a lower grade coin to fill the hole, if I know it might be years before I can buy a higher grade. And sometimes the price jump is just crazy ... for a middle class collector. For example, check out numismedia price guide for a 1926 S Indian head/Buffalo nickel Fine $85 - Very Fine $240 That is a big jump for just one grade. For me, unless that series was going to be a crown jewel for my collection, the fine grade would fill the hole. Or maybe even lower. Report this Post to the Staff
