Actually IMO it IS a rip off because in terms of what value youre getting for your collection; economically it can be useful sometimes for selling...
hey people trashed me when i was new here too, so i guess no surprise
I actually can grab seated and barber halves fairly easily with my sniping (I go after ones with horrible pictures and horrible end times), but...
Keep in mind that these earlier ones are struck very differently than the later ones...they can grade AU and only look VF detail in some instances.
MS-65/66; some minor chatter and strike looks a bit weak, but that might've been overlooked for the toning. I like it a lot.
66-67
I think this may even be slightly better than VF-20 based on the reverse; obverse looks to lack detail based on strike weakness as opposed to...
I cannot tell entirely from the pics, but it looks AU at least on the obverse.
On top of that I would not call that 'lightly cleaned'...it looks pretty bad...and I would send it back definitely. You can find a nice uncleaned...
I'd say $60 to $85 on eBay. Bust halves go for very high prices on eBay compared to other coins.
If it is an old ANACS documentation, it may be a considerably higher grade and worth more than an MS-64 price. You should definitely post pics so...
Yeah, looks around VF.
It does cost money, and its mostly a huge rip off unless you need them graded for authenticity purposes or for selling them when there is a big...
I agree, obvious fake. I had not taken much of a look at it, but anyone who collects this series avidly (as I do) can tell that the date is way...
I didn't see that he did, and I still maintain he shouldn't necessarily: The strike vs. wear debate is a huge thing that I've seen come up MANY...
Yeah agreed, red book is a pretty bad judge of value, so is PCGS price guide etc. numismedia is better but nowhere near perfect either.
True. The color made it appear more worn in the small photo than it really was. However: This is more what I think of when I think "XF-40":...
Hmm well, I guess I should explain the rationale behind the figures I gave: The reason I gave him the prices I did was because it appears that...
Agreed lol, that's what I would do.
I don't know if it has AU details, though. You may be right that the photo doesn't show the detail correctly, but it is at least XF-45 (based on...
