Here is a semi-key date to the Capped Bust Half Series. What do you guys think I should mark on the flip VF-20 or VF-30? I'm leaning towards 30. Thanks for looking Ben
Bone, Overall, I would say vf-25 or vf-30. I wouldn't question either grade. It simply depends on how much someone wants to net for the cleaning/scratch.
I'll put it this way, it fit into my $100 or less criteria for CBHs when I purchased it BTW, I have only the 1815 to go for a complete dated set and with the addition of one coin last week now have 77 different die varieties. I'm getting closer and closer to the Bust Half Nut Club...
Nice pickup for under 100! Unfortunately it is going to be pretty hard to pick up an 1815 for under 100. The cheapest I have seen was a holed, cleaned example for 200 dollars. : (
Oh, tell me about it the 1815 is going to probably take years of saving. I pretty much gutted my old BaseBall Card Collection inorder to buy this series and a few others over the past year or so and have only mid 80s cards and up now. I should have sold them earlier like in the 90s instead... alas
It's a shame that baseball cards dropped in price so much. I pulled mine out recently, looked up the prices, and was very confused as cards worth 30 or so dollars in the 90's, were not worth only a couple dollars .
1992 Fleer ULTRA (Award Winners) WORTH VIRTUALLY NOTHING The Cal Ripken, Jr., 'reverse' oriole is worth like a $buck now... Unbelieveable All the rest too are in the $dollar range...
It's got some interesting wear, I'll go with VF-20, but I think it could go to VF-25. I don't think that it would make 30 because of the reverse wear and the lightly struck obverse.
