<p>[QUOTE="Joe Campbell, post: 2860545, member: 89857"]A couple weeks ago my 11 year old bought a token lot at a coin auction. Included in it is a far 1864 civil war store card from O.G. Metcalf in Belmont OH. It is listed in Fuld as OH 070-A-a1. Apparently it's R-8 meaning it's a fairly rare coin. It's also from a single merchant town and it's an 1864 which I'm told helps as well. Quick searches on the 'ole internet shows that in F-VF these have been selling in the $1,200-$1,900 range over the last 5 years. Our is not as nice as those examples, probably more in the G range. I've never sold a coin in my life and really don't know how to get the most money for something like this, being rare but also appealing likely to only a very narrow market. Any thoughts on how to maximize value on selling this piece is greatly appreciated. </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
