[QUOTE="bannishg, post: 897792, member: 25474"]I talked with a local hobby shop in Springfield, Mass and they had a few records from past sales, the following are asking prices from September 1950: -1794 Cent: fair, not porous, date barely readable: $1.50 -1891 Indian Cent, Proof: $2.10 -1916 SLQ, Fine: $24.00 -Trade Dollars: From $2.00 -1798 Dime, Fair: $8.00 -1799 Silver Dollar, AG: $18.50 -1909 S VDB, UNC: $10.00!!! -1824 Half Dol, Fine: $2.00 -1915 Panama $50 Gold (Round): "Very Rare and Very Expensive" -1802 Half Dime, "ridiculously hard to find": Offers around $400.00 -1795 Half Cent, Good: $5.60 more to come........... Whattya think? If you actually had the opportunity to travel back to 1950 and purchase these coins, how would you go about paying for them? Surely you'd have to find appropriate bills and coins from your collection(s) to make it work? It was at least 15 years before credit cards!!! Greg[/QUOTE]
