It's about a $50 coin, give or take a few bucks. I would strongly advise you to keep looking though. Auctions that specify no returns are not a good idea.
Better than which others at what price? All I can tell you is that it's a very nice 1826 CBH in F-12 with what looks like a couple of rim nicks, and they are selling in the $40-$50 range on eBay. I certainly have no reason to mislead you. It's up to you as to how much it's worth to you personally. If you think it's worth more, and you are happy bidding on an auction that specifies "no returns", then I suggest you bid high and bid often.
well the only reason I want the coin because its in fairly good condition at a decent price and it would be my first of any capped bust series
Maybe I'm missing something, but since there are still several hours to go in the auction, how do you know what the price of the coin is?
Okay first let me say that I agree with Jody. You have to compare a particular coin against itself, not another coin. Now all years for the Capped Bust Half series are not valued the same. For the 1824 in the photos provided, I would offer $32 to $35 if the coin was brought to me. I would then offer the coin for sale at $38 to $40. Now this is based on the rim bumps seen in the photo. If they are worse in person the prices drop. If you are buying this coin based solely on price, skip it. You can buy better examples in the $40 to $50 range than this one.
That's another interesting point about this auction, ND. The seller never mentions the rim bumps, and only states that he is not "certified to grade coins for sale", and that he tries "honestly to describe everything" he sells. Sound honest to you?
This is such a common selling statement made on the online auction circuit. Sad isn't it? I wonder if I could get away with that one?
If you thought you could, would you try? (no need to respond, I know you well enough to know your answer)
well maybee for a coin like that I should just go to the local coin shop because I do agree with you guys
