    $20 and change, with postage, doesn't seem cheap to me for a circulated example - what am I missing?

    Nothing wrong with the buy - just looking around at some dealers I see these going from 20 - 35 bucks(f to VF) + shipping and handling. So nothing wrong with your buy.

    I think you should have paid whatever you wanted to - that is your decision/choice. The price seems in line with what I would have expected, but it doesn't strike me as a "good buy". Curiously, did you buy it because you liked it or because you thought it was cheap?

    In my opinion, i dont buy worn out coins, WHY? Why have a worn out coin, yes it is a semi key, but it is very worn. To me it is not worth it.

    This coin was for my 10 year old grandson. He only needs two more to complete it. To me it looks like a nice coin..

    That sounds like a wonderful reason to buy the coin!:smile

    Looks like a nice coin at a fair price. Let me guess, your grandson still needs 1921 and 1928?

    I'd say you did good, Ed. Besides, for your grandson to be that close to completing the set, every addition is like gold to him, I'm sure. I would have bought it too.

    You guessed right. 21 & 28. The next one will be the 21.
