[QUOTE="Mikey Zee, post: 2112161, member: 72818"]Well, you may have overpaid a bit, since most Ike's in similar grade and even 40% silver, typically retail between $30-$40.....and U.S. Silver mint types from $50-$70. But, it is high grade and attractive...so you could have done far worse... There are many ways to put a coin, especially a slabbed coin, in context with current retail values---and that way you can have a good idea if it is a typical price or a bargain or way overpriced....Among them are coin books and googling the coin itself and simply comparing prices....As an 'old dude' i still compare the values on a 'Coin World' magazine listing---all US coins from day one to the present and all their values by type, grade, mint and year. Of course that info can generally also be accessed online. Best of luck and enjoy!![/QUOTE]
