Seller's pictures are pretty good. I'm interested in this for my 7070 and not sure of grade therefore not sure on a reasonable price. Thanks in advance. 153440455988

Agree with a Fine grade, F12 most likely. Might also compare it with VG10s.
That's a pretty attractive example overall for that date as corrosion problems are common. There's maybe a little of that on that coin but it is not too distracting overall.
Since this is a pure auction, the reasonable price is what it sells for! I do understand wanting to compare with others however in case there's a bidding war between two uninformed buyers.

The stars, wreath, and letters have VF sharpness, but with the lack of detail on the bust, I would say F-15 at most.

F-12, rim and (very possibly) ED issues.

I would pass. For that money I'd find one with less problems.
edit: I changed my mind. Might be good for the price, but lets see where it goes with 4 days left.

A VG10 BN straight graded PCGS coin recently sold for $260. With this coins issues (and who knows what is lurking under those dark surfaces), and multiple known counterfeits, it just doesn't make sense. Buy certified, and crack her out.

F-12. And I wouldn't go much over the $182.50 it's at now even though it's $500.00 on an average for fine. I tend to stay around half of the average, that way if I need quick cash a dealer will unknowingly give me a profit.

 with F12 details, I'm wondering if this coin is even flat? Looks like more than just rim damage, possibly bent slightly. I can't really tell from the photos. It's a tough coin, but at under $200 it's not a horrible deal IMO, If I was looking for this coin, I'd look for a better example, I'd always have issues with spending more than a $100 on a problem coin. Learned my lessons previously.

Thank you everyone. Some awesome advice that I will heed. Going to go slabbed and crack it out. This one is presently at $214.50. Wonder what it'll hammer at.

That's a lot of dough for that one. There are return privileges, so we'll see.
