<p>[QUOTE="halfcent1793, post: 2796300, member: 86853"]The problem with ANY price guide is that it tries to reflect the market, but the market for half cents is split, with the nicer coins in every grade going to collectors who are willing to pay a premium for them. If you find a mark-free VG with nice color and no problems, plan to pay Fine money for it and so on up. For the earlier types, I do not believe that it is possible to get a truly UNC or AU coin for the prices in the guides.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
