<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mark_Canada, post: 26536314, member: 176039&quot;]Just signed up, but have read these fora for a long time. Thanks for everyone&#039;s posts - this area is absolutely fascinating...!</p><p><br /></p><p>For background - I&#039;m very novice, but very lucky to have collected some great coins along the way (all vetted through those who very much do know what they&#039;re doing). I&#039;ve read as much as I can about how to tell if a coin is authentic, and am starting (I think) to get a general sense; however, would certainly not trust myself). I&#039;m generally trying to obtain coins that are not slabbed since I think (?) that they tend to be a bit cheaper.</p><p><br /></p><p>And I&#039;ll also apologize for the topic as I know that this probably one of the most common topics a beginner like me asks.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m trying to obtain one in silver now and trying to get a sense of how much one would cost in this day and age. I&#039;ve seen past posts including from 2016 I think where the same question was asked, and the estimate was about ?$8k I believe. I have searched and tried to source, but hoping to avoid auctions altogether. Since this is my first post, I can&#039;t post it in the &#039;Want&#039; thread yet, but will when I can. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have a healthy budget for it (I was looking at HJB&#039;s 12 Caesars that just sold, but missed the boat) - I&#039;m more concerned that it&#039;s a decent deal than the price.</p><p><br /></p><p>For quality, I was hoping for VF or above.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
