As I have been buying loads of stuff lately at the flea market, I came across this as I was searching the spoils.


What might this reasonably be worth

That looks like the big one. Are you kidding me-at the flea market?
It goes for about $300 in VF.

Nope...Not kidding. Picked it up at face value too

WOO HOO...I'm going out on a limb to say this is a bit better than VF (IMHO)

Here's a direct link...not sure why you can't see it. My server problems have been taken care of. Maybe your ISP hasn't updated yet, if so, it (you) might be looking at the old server, which doesn't exist any more

Lucky Dog you!! I doesn't need authenticating to me but heck, certification would be worth the investment I'd think.

WOW. I just saw one at a coin show last Sunday. Was slabbed as a MS-63 and the dealer wanted $800. I tried arguing the price using the Red Book's price of $700 for a MS-65 but he was firm saying try finding one at any price. Yours looks about a UNC or close to it. If I were you I'd have it graded by a TPGS.
Really great find.

I'm thinking that grading/certification is going to happen.
Just for security reasons if nothing else.
This will be, by far, the most valuable coin in my collection.

I'm searching around now for shops in My area that can get it sent out.
Since PCGS seems to be the big dog on the playgrounf right now, they will get the nod for the service.
