Prices for the 1846 Rutherford Bros. 1/2d. trader's currency token from Newfoundland?

Does anyone have the prices for this Newfoundland trader's currency token in VF & EF in both Charlton & Krause? One graded gVF/EF has turned up in a postal auction over here with an estimate of NZ$35. I want to know if putting a NZ$30 bid is reasonable or a bit high.

Can you please help?

I had to look up in the Charlton traders' currency token book at work.It was priced at around C$20 in VF.I decided to put in a bid of NZ$30.

It is from Harbour Grace.The lot number is 13.If I am successful on this,then it will be lucky number 13 instead of unlucky number 13.

I have the May 15 2007 CCN Trends right here in front of me:
CAD prices: NFLD Rutherford 1846....VG $6........F $11....VF $25....EF $100....AU $250
Converted rates as of May 18 2007:
NZD prices: NFLD Rutherford 1846....VG $7.45....F $14....VF $31....EF $124....AU $311

 

I will hear back after next Tuesday to find out if I am successful in getting this token.Newfoundland is the only one of the pre-Confederation colonies in Canada that I haven't got represented in traders' currency tokens.

Surprisingly,I was able to get the Magdalen Islands represented,as it only ever had 1 token.

I am very pleased to let you know that my bid of NZ$30 was the only bid received & I will be getting this coin into my collection during the next few days.
