Message:: [QUOTE="Endeavor, post: 2314551, member: 60292"]Hello ladies and gentlemen. A friend of the family asked me "what's it worth?" regarding a couple coins they have. One of them is a 1943 cent so no big deal as I know that's like $5 at best. However, I don't know much about the other coin as I don't collect these. It is an 1830 Capped Bust Dime. Unfortunately the photos provided aren't great (see attached), but I think it's good enough to get an idea on its condition. From what I see it doesn't seem to be in high grade but doesn't seem to be very worn either as I can read "Liberty" on the cap. I know there are several factors to consider, but lets just assume the coin isn't cleaned and there is no major damage. I will tell them "value is about $x if it's not cleaned or damaged", and then they can take it from there. It doesn't seem to be a rare coin by any means. There are currently 110 active listings on eBay. The range on active and sold is pretty wide so that's why I'm asking for some help. I also noticed that there is a small and medium variety. The designations are JR-2, for example, or something like that. Not sure how much of a difference, if any, there is. Any help us appreciated. [ATTACH]466861[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]466862[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
