Fair price?

I want to complete(almost) my lincoln cent collection. I am lacking a 1914 d, and of course the 09 s vdb. Any ideas what I might pay at a coin shop for a hole filler, uncertified 14 d? Any input appreciated

$60-$80 for about good to good. Be careful, a lot of counterfeits.

 

I think about $100 for mine. It is probably a G-8. I got my SVDB here on this site from a member about three months ago. I think I paid him about $700 for it. Of course, I also got an Indian Head 1877, 1922 No D, and a 3-Legged Buffalo, all slabbed, at the same time. So, he cut me a bit of a deal.

 

Funny my collection is missing those same two holes.

 

Mine also.

 

Let us see what you end up getting for the price!

 

Make sure there is NO VDB on Lincoln's shoulder on the 1914-D. I've seen altered 1944-Ds that forget about that one little detail. From 1910 to 1917 there were no VDB initials anywhere on the coin. They were put on the shoulder in 1918.

 

Or visible tooling on the shoulder

 

I was missing the same 2 as well. Then got this damaged 14 D for $40 as a hole filler. I matched the MM with justafarmer's overlay.

 

Well, pulled the trigger, looked at several at a couple of local coin shops. Paid.$150 out the door. Looks good on my 50 year old whitman book

 

Congrats. Now go after the big one.
