Also, in a rising market, the price guides are based upon past sales and may not reflect current market conditions.

Quality coins are worth a premium. Don't compromise on quality.

Maybe don't get hung up on Numbers. If you like it-buy it. Money comes and goes; nice coins-not so much. If you buy on-line, it is very easy to see what your "replacement cost" is, and figure it out from that.

Thanks all for your input. I'm pleased to have it in hand for the total cost of $170. It actually looks a little better in hand but I concur with the the VF-20 grade. I'm glad that I had the patience to wait for a problem free example at the right price.

Congratulations on your acquisition!
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS
THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
