They are not uncommon wholesale They are not uncommon wholesale dealer to dealer I would feel good about getting $3 to $7 in mint state and not graded - I have owned about 24 in mint state and still find them going through circ. wheats. I would price a mint state (63 or below) one at $6 at my show. If it were a MS-66 or so now it would get more - it really depends on die state as much as anything.
