[QUOTE="Collecting Nut, post: 3266851, member: 74863"]The Yeoman Red Book also has a 1909-S VDB in AU-50 listed at $1250.00. Regardless of the source, a price guide is just that, a guide. It's like the MSRP on a new car price tag. If you are looking for an investment, no you shouldn't buy this coin. If you are a collector or want to be one day, yes, by all means buy it. You have some serious consideration to do with yourself. If you do decide to buy this coin then consider this: A) The coin is priced at $975.00 for a reason. B) Yes it is $275.00 below NGC's guide but don't let that affect your judgment. C) It is graded so you can look up the number for more information. D) Ask as many questions as you feel are necessary to make a smart decision. E) You can always make in offer lower than the dealers asking price. Be prepared for a counteroffer. F) Only you can decide if this coin is right for you and your anticipated future needs. What is going up today may be going down in a year or two. Don't let market fluctuations influence you into a buy/sell/hold decision.[/QUOTE]
