<p>[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 2378518, member: 36230"]The coin displays remaining detail well above the noted (and certainly netted) "grade" written on the (obv) flip, but as is also noted, is heavily corroded. With such coins it is difficult to determine a "value" as all depends on the severity of the damage, appearance, and most importantly, what someome will pay. Unfortunately, and even though the coin still posses much history, a great number of people would have no interest beyond scrap. This isn't to say that others who buy such coins would not pay more, but is something you should be aware of <i>if </i>buying coins you're not familiar with. That said, I have little doubt that there are many who would pay at least a couple bucks for it as a collectible, and perhaps more if sold to a novelty-type buyer. If you like and will enjoy owning it, at this point that is all that should matter though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
