tlsweet Valued Member United States 111 Posts	Posted 07/06/2011 10:14 am Ok, so I'm reading my Red Book and this coin really interests me. I go over to ebay and see it has some pretty hefty pricing, and while checking through messages here I see that a VG can start at 45.00. I'd love to have one of these but not sure how to tell is someone is asking a ridiculous amount. Report this Post to the Staff

TwoKopeiki Pillar of the Community Czech Republic 803 Posts	Posted 07/06/2011 1:31 pm I would recommend staying away from ebay when purchasing pillars, unless you have a trusted dealer with a solid return policy, due to the ridiculous ammount of counterfeits in that series and your inexperience with it. Depending on the condition and relative scarcity of a particular date, you can get them as cheap as $200 for a nice VF example. XF for common dates would be around 350-500 bucks, and AU - around $1000. Report this Post to the Staff
tlsweet Valued Member United States 111 Posts	Posted 07/06/2011 1:35 pm Thanks, that is kinda what I was thinking. If anyone can lead me to a reputable online site that would be great. I have read there are a lot of counterfeits, and being so new I don't have the expertise to know the difference. Report this Post to the Staff

I think I spent around 500 bucks on it and just love the color on it: Report this Post to the Staff
