<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fiddlehead, post: 1933649, member: 31286&quot;]I sold an 1885 AU 55 CC recently.&nbsp; The coin was posted here at one point.&nbsp; I believe I got about $600 for it - but you would have to deduct the final fee and shipping from that - and it was certified. So unfortunately, the $450 you paid for an uncertified example is probably ok but no hugely great deal - a wicked high price if it details.&nbsp; I also sold a VF30 89&#039; for a little over $1400.&nbsp; I broke even after selling expenses for what I paid for it about 3 years ago.&nbsp; Your uncertified example?- I wouldn&#039;t pay all that much because full certification doubles (or more) their selling prices.&nbsp; There are so many details grade coins out there among the old ones, full grade is pretty hard to find.&nbsp; I&#039;m not able to accurately judge the likelihood of coins making grade - but I get lucky now and then![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
