<p>[QUOTE=&quot;pondman, post: 758889, member: 21898&quot;]I would never advise anyone on the condition of a coin from a photograph, only because I have enough experience with distasters. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>However when it comes to value:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If the O.P. needed to sell this coin at the end of the week, he would not need to sell it to a dealer for $35. People who suggest that they can get this for $35 have either: spent on enormous amount of money on a purchasing chain and aggressive marketing, have robbed a pawn shop, or have found someone in distress. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The coin market isn&#039;t segmented as a wall-mart. There isn&#039;t a clandestine, old boys network, receiving product at 80% less than the rest of the humans. The reason they have this advantage is because they spend money on other areas, marketing, sales, employees, which give them an advantage.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>$90 +- 20 is about average for the type of coin (retail.) I know everybody wants to buy it for less, but to get it at $35 is probably going to cost you more than it&#039;s worth. Yeah, he could spend $100 in gas getting to a coin show, or shopping in another town. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In a PCGS slab I could sell it for $110+-10 after fees in hades(ebay), being an honest person, but that takes a little bit of work and time, again which cost money. I have my doubts he could get a slab for $90 without effort. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As to whether this is a common coin or not, it doesn&#039;t matter. Televisions are common. Try and find a cheap one. It&#039;s a matter of interest and what people are paying. My point: $90 is right in the ballpark, for a XF without any problems. Could go up or down in the future. Today that&#039;s about what it is.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
