1847 Restruck Date large cent

Ok, long story, so get ready to read, if you don't like to read, move on

I recently learned that at a local pawn shop, a man had a 1899 5.00 indian chief note, that is in Fine condition, for 150.00, even though I'm not a paper money collector, I COULD NOT resist, I waited for a wire transfer to go through, and I snagged up the note, after talking with people who collected such, I was soon to learn that I could easily make double my money on this note. I took it up to my local coin dealer, who had just purchased the same kind of note in VG for 220.00, and it was the only one he had been able to find lately, so I brought this note into him and he got tickled to death and whatnot, I received 180.00 CASH, an 1891 O seated dime in high grade, and to top it all off, I got an 1847 Large cent, with a restruck date, it grades VF , the price on this bad bugger was 150.00 .
TOTAL = 380.00

I plan on selling the large cent, what would be a good price to sell this off as? and what would be the catalog number on it, I don't think it's in cherrypickers.
