MarcusCoins Valued Member Canada 80 Posts	Posted 04/13/2018 06:11 am Thanks for responses! This coin would be worth 250-270$ if it were a normal XF40..with graffiti, would 150$ be about right? Report this Post to the Staff
okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5590 Posts	Posted 04/13/2018 06:15 am The intentional marring of the XF coin, and it's location, takes it down below VF-20 to try to sell it. Where it trended at about 300 Canadian, I doubt that you could sell it for more than $10-15. They are common enough that I doubt someone would use it as a hole filler .. sorry.

MarcusCoins Valued Member Canada 80 Posts	Posted 04/13/2018 06:27 am Well, I figure 39$ wasn't the worst deal. I'm sure some people would still be willing to pay a wee bit more than I did to get a nice example of one of Canada's first quarters Report this Post to the Staff
john100 Pillar of the Community Canada 5324 Posts	Posted 04/13/2018 09:40 am It's only worth bullion value, just too much damage Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 04/13/2018 09:49 am I would take it up for $20, maybe a bit more, but not as a hole filler, because I don't collect sets. I would take on it's merits at that price level, as an individual coin. It would be included in the Canadian part of my World collection. The obvious scratch would be noted, as well as price and date paid, on the 2x2. Report this Post to the Staff

I also would have paid 35 or so and right to my collection permanently . Edited by Canacoins 04/14/2018 5:35 pm Report this Post to the Staff
