[QUOTE="bhp3rd, post: 535953, member: 16510"][b]It would be somewhat series dependent.[/b] It would be somewhat series dependent but a good rule would be if it is damaged or not. In that low a grade so many coins will have damage so I would go by any and all damage there may or may not be first then just use common sense. Formula: G-4 sells for $100 and about AG with problems might lower it to $30 but without problems $65 - so any premium would be for the coin with no problems first. A very important thing to keep in mind on coins like these - except for a few Lincoln's, Barbers, etc. if buying from a dealer he may well not have anything in this grade coin. Either it was part of a group or collection and he happened to get lucky or something but this type low grade coin he may very well have $0 in it - that would give the picky buyer a little bargaining power to begin with. One more thing then I will shut up - it's very possible that as many as half the 14-D Lincolns in that grade that are raw are counterfeit because in that grade you cannot find any die markers so be careful.[/QUOTE]
