<p>[QUOTE="mark_h, post: 374310, member: 3726"]First - I don't use the redbook. Sometimes the prices can be way off. I listed a range of numbers because I was not sure about the grade because I can not see all of Liberty. Second - I paid $55 dollars for my 1804 crosslet 4 no stems in VG8, but your coin looks nicer than mine (eye appeal). Third - I would have paid $70 dollars for that coin. If the liberty and date are as you said. The color of your coin is very nice to me. My software lists a VG8 at 78$ and I usually subtract from that number - like redbook prices. So I think you got a good deal, because you like the coin. If you notice I don't often play the what's it worth game. I don't mind responding, but I don't ask either. Mostly just because I like the coins I get and it may not be worth to others what I paid - but it was worth it to me.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have two threads that would be relevant here - one about a trade dollar. Where I mention how it is a gamble sometimes when I buy coins - read that post. Then in another post I have at 1830 O-122 bust half I just got - send me a PM on what you think I paid. It is graded AU-58 by NGC - use heritage and/or any other pricing grades you want. I will be busy for a while but I will respond.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is just me; but I am willing to pay my local dealer prices that I would not pay online. Why - because I get to see the eye appeal of a coin in person. And yes - even VG coins like this can look great to me.
