[QUOTE="illini420, post: 1285423, member: 19423"]$600 is way too low on that coin, you should be able to get around $1000 on that one or more without too much trouble if you sell on eBay or here on the forums. Looked it up on PCGS CoinFacts and here's the info. PCGS Price Guide is $1250 on that one. Sometimes that retail price is higher than the real market value, but it doesn't appear to be high in this case. Here's some recent auction results for this coin in VF35: PCGS VF35 $1265 (6/2011) $1208 (4/2010) $1208 (6/2009) As you can see, the price of a PCGS graded VF35 that looks decent (as yours does) seems relatively stable in the $1200-$1250 range retail. Accordingly, selling for a little less than that shouldn't be too difficult. Using the Greysheet price for this isn't appropriate in my opinion. These early bust halves are listed in the quarterly greysheets which are infrequently updated. Moreover, they simply list a VF price, then the next one up is XF. The VF price is for a VF20 coin... your coin as a VF35 is worth much more than a generic VF20. In any event, if you disagree with any of the foregoing, I'll happily buy the coin from you right now for the Greysheet bid of $700 ;) Nice coin![/QUOTE]
