Is there an available online reference to pricing for old half's(pre seated) that takes variety into account. I'm looking at several but it's nearly impossible for me determine what a fair price is. Yes, I know the price is what someone is willing to pay for it. Most references I see only break down by date/grade but not much in the way of variety and rarity. Any help appreciated.
There is little, if any, premium unless it's at least an R5 or a recognizable and cool die marriage (1817/3, for instance).
R4's carry a pretty nice premium! (Always depending on what it looks like!) Coinfacts has all overton's listed with pop reports and previous pcgs/ngc sales. If I'm not mistaken, all of the auction prices are from major auction(heritage, as said above) I usually go straight to coinfacts with my pricing questions!
Thanks to you and the others. I checked coinfacts and did indeed find them listed. Sadly there are so many overton's with so many different grades that most only have 1 or 2 per grade with no history. But it does provide a decent baseline as long at the rarity is similar I would suppose. I will just make sure I really like one before pulling the trigger in the event I way over pay I will just chalk it up to tuition expense.
