I found this one has decent detail for a poor 1, just need to figure a good price. Thanks   |

Can't see much in these pics. Can you crop and enlarge?

There may be a little bit of the wreath left on the rev, but I'm thinking that it is almost slick. I do like the remaining detail on the obv though.

Try these the bid price is $1,500 which I know that's overpriced but it has best offer and I talked to him and I'm going to call him Tuesday to see what he can do, anyone have a idea would might be a fair offer? Thanks   |

Can't see the reverse at all. I hope you're not thinking of buying from these pics, price aside.

Looking at PCGS photograde, the obverse appears to be better than Poor-1. Looks closer to AG-3 or at least Fair-2. I can't see anything on the reverse from pics provided. Also unknown if if it is a lettered edge variety. Considering it is in an ANACS holder, should reduce the value some. Here is a link to the PCGS site. If you scroll down the page you can see what a Poor-1 example is valued at and what they actually sold for. Good luck with your quest and keep us updated. https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin...bars-bn/1347 |

Would $1,200 or a little more sound ok?

Show him the PCGS page that shows the value at $1050 and then negotiate down because it is in a ANACS holder. I think that offering $1000 is fair but then again, it's not my money!

Well he said $1,400 that's why I said $1,200 but I'm not sure if he will take that.

Please do not pay $1,200 for this. Please. You seem to have a death fixation on this issue. Take a week off and catch your breath.

Looks pretty good to me. Nice bust, which says it all. Try and whittle it down.

I think I'm going to take a break buying coins, I'm putting to much attention to coins I think I need a break.

Good call. Have patience. The seller will likely have to drop the price eventually and you don't need the purchase as much as he may need the sale. Keep checking Heritage and Great Collections. Perhaps something better will come your way. Best of luck!

I remember when you could buy these for under $500 all day long.
The market has changed a lot...
From my point of view, if I had enough money to buy coins at this price range on a regular basis, I'd save my money for a few months and then buy the nicest, most close to problem-free AG or Good example I could obtain. At least enough to where the reverse and obverse detail are clear enough to identify - I mean, it's supposed to be a type coin (at least it would be for me) so I'd want to be able to see both sides.
