needgames4lyfe Valued Member United States 323 Posts	Posted 04/25/2010 9:14 pm Hey, Could you guys clue me in to how much this coin is worth? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...t_500wt_1182 I liked how it looked and agree with the vf grading. According to numisedia, it should be around $92. Is that about right? Also, do you see any problems with the coin? Report this Post to the Staff

needgames4lyfe Valued Member United States 323 Posts	Posted 04/25/2010 9:33 pm his reserve was $70 I believe. Even in F12, numismedia, it says $78. Are the prices not right on that site? Report this Post to the Staff
wheatguy Pillar of the Community United States 1534 Posts	Posted 04/25/2010 9:47 pm Prices on Numismedia are often on the high side, and the overall eye appeal of the coin is not worth $70, or anywhere near that. I agree with Dave (Vermontensium) with his value opinion. Edited by wheatguy 04/25/2010 9:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff
TDColl Valued Member United States 161 Posts	Posted 04/25/2010 9:59 pm Yeah, that one looks pretty beat up, and appears bright from cleaning as well. I see some damage around the date, which is always a turn-off for me. I see it did not meet reserve at a bid of 51.50; overly optimistic I'd say. Report this Post to the Staff
