Thread: I'd like to add this to my collection, GOOD DEAL????

http://providence.craigslist.org/clt/2966183887.html

Is this a good deal for this coin???

A 1908 Barber quarter in G-4 lists for about $10.00 so I would say no, not a good buy at all.

Those photos leave a lot to be desired.

Bad pictures + no grade given + too high of a price = NO.

If the seller isn't too far away, ask to see the coin in person. Not everyone can take good photos sadly.

$75 would be an EF-40, according to red book.

The photos don't show detail well enough, it may very well be EF-40.

Like I said, if the seller isn't to far away, you have nothing to loose.

Don't go by redbook prices.

Although I would probably pass on the coin.

I'm not going by that price. The ad said $75, so the seller probably graded by the redbook. EF-40 would be the $75 mark.

If it's a problem free coin, and it does make EF-40, $50 would be a fair price. They sell for that on eBay.
