I am sure the dealer used to sort through the coins the first few times, but he soon learned that there was very little reward over the long run...
For completed series, like Indian head cents, almost any price guide will tell you by price comparison in the G-VG area. Example 1862- $13 Common...
I have noticed a lot of bidding levels drying up on ebay in the coin groups I look at. More people are using "reserve" due to the lack of...
Ahh, but for 2-3 grand I could get another very nice 1955 DDO lincoln :D, or maybe even buy Stainless's Gorgon ( which is a nice looking coin). Jim
Nice coin RLM ! congrats on getting it. Tough , tough date in any grade as you well know. Jim

Looks like a Bashlow restrike. The best indication of price would be ebay sells. I can't really tell what condition yours happens to be. One that...
Nikon, were the rolls made by you or did the grandmother roll them? If the latter, then probably you did fine. It is a good possibility she knew...
Jeankay, didn't you have one here that was a triple?? They are fun! Jim
Yeah, but us science types like the showy experiments, and the blue coming out is so "sciencey":D Jim
Amazon has it pre-order for $26.37 eligible for free shipping. Jim
