It is rough but I would take that anyday for my type set. Nice coin!

Well hold on, because as soon as the grade is settled here
she will be up for auction shortly.

Guess it will be VG8 then and will move it along.

I agree with VG-8 detail. The market price will be reduced due to the obverse dig, rim bruise, and overall roughness.

Thanks, I kind of figured that with the marks etc.
FMV is around 285-290. You think 250 would be fair ?
or more like 225 ?
I need to start selling some of my seated halfs and dollars.
Would like to see some people on here get a few if they can before I start going elsewhere. Some are higher end so the prices may be out of reach for most. Guess I can do an auction on ea. coin one at a time etc. Just wanted to start getting some input on a fair start price etc. I already sold
6 other coins (lower end) to a local dealer of mine and got
good prices as a few members mentioned. Just about at market
or better.

I sold a VF-30/35 detail coin for $225, but it went cheap. Probably $180 at most honestly (I could be wrong) because it looks pretty beat up.

Thanks. That makes sense. Same dealer I sold others to offered
150. I declined that offer. I now think 175-200 range should do it for this raw coin. 30 to 35% below market. Guess what is - Is :)

I can't go VG with looking at the shield, liberty and motto. Not enough detail for VG.
G would be my vote.

I think the rims, rev. shield and the actual in hand
visibility of the motto bumped it up past G6.

Would not really matter much price wise anyway even if a G6.
$265.00 @ G6 fmv. It's condition knocks that all down anyway.
Would still most likely fit in the 175 range.

The rims are VG.
To give it a VG, you want to see at least a few letters of LIBERTY. I've enlarged the scan and don't see them. I'm probibly wrong.
Reverse OK VG. Some horizontal lines and a nice rim.
OK VG

You are correct about Liberty. Looking closer a few letters
slightly discernable but due to the hits near them probably
not enough to make the 8 grade unless the fact that the rev.
motto which is all readable plus the overall 8 attributes present on the coin combined would have an overall effect on the net grade. If not then it is a 6, if so then a crazy 8 :) I am going to put it up on the auction forum and state it as G6/VG8 and come up with a fair start bid. Thanks again for all the help.

I wouldn't expect more than a g price with all the nicks.
Are those chopmarks on the shield?
