I've been buying and selling on eBay for almost eleven years now, but never sold a coin. So while searching through a jar of old wheat cents a few weeks ago, I came across this one. A little beat up, but it sold. Anyone care to guess what it sold for? And what would the approximate grade be?
I dunno, without knowing the value of American Coins, Ill take a shot at it. 1911, I dont think there was a shortage of metal, as WWI didn't hit until 1914. The grade isn't the best...maybe a VG as a grade. Mintage from the S mint was 4 million, considered a low mintage by normal standards. I'll say 5 bucks plus S&H? How much did you have listed as a S&H because that effects the bidding as well. Hang tight for other guesses before you advise what it sold for...Im totally in the dark on American coins.
Ok, Id like to change my bid..8 bucks including shipping and handling. BTW, mintage was only 4 million. Please post the ebay link when you are ready, so we can all see the bidding 'fleury'
Without the reverse, it is a little hard to tell for sure, but it looks to be fine/VF, but has some corrosion on it. eBay is kind of all over the map, but $44?
I paid $26 for a similar coin on ebay in May 2006 plus $2 for S&H. Assuming some inflation and free delivery, I'll bet it sold for about $30.
