<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Publius2, post: 25541235, member: 105571&quot;]H&#039;mm.&nbsp; I usually don&#039;t like to address these kinds of questions because ....</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway,&nbsp; let me say this.&nbsp; I would give your coin a grade of around VG-10.&nbsp; Greysheet lists the 1810 in VG-8 at 220 and in F-12 at $440.&nbsp; The CDN retail CPG lists VG-8 at $285 and F-12 at $570.&nbsp; Now, those prices are for straight-graded coins in holders and are basically averages of numerous sales.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Your coin is raw, has some minor edge dings and some porosity.&nbsp; Would it straight-grade?&nbsp; Maybe.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>My judgement is that at $475 for a slabbed, straight-graded coin in VG-10, that would be at the high end of a &quot;fair deal&quot;.&nbsp; However, I would not have paid $475 for this coin raw.&nbsp; I just don&#039;t like having to take on all the risk of a formal grading event.</p><p><br /></p><p>But if you are happy with the coin for your type set, that&#039;s what matters.&nbsp; And the off-center strike has some charm to it.&nbsp; If the &quot;thing&quot; below the date is actually a cud, then that&#039;s another plus.</p><p><br /></p><p>Another thing to think about is that you spent a lot of time scouring EBay for a coin acceptable to your eye and pocket.&nbsp; This one satisfied those criteria.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
