<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Publius2, post: 7929761, member: 105571&quot;]This dollar looks like it&#039;s the common BB-61 die marriage, Small Date, Large Letters.&nbsp; Thus, it does not have the cachet of a rare die marriage where one might be tempted to overlook the obvious and severe damage to both obverse and reverse.</p><p><br /></p><p>As a type set addition, the die marriage would be perfectly acceptable but this is not a nice coin and most collectors would eventually, if not sooner, regret buying it.&nbsp; In addition, I do not believe the price is attractive for a raw, severely damaged coin.&nbsp; If I was in the market for such a coin, I would not pay more than about $200 for it.&nbsp; But that&#039;s just me.&nbsp; I have no idea what your circumstances are nor your collecting goals and criteria.&nbsp; But you asked what I would do.&nbsp; I would not even consider this coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>At my local coin club a couple of years ago, a member sold another member a common, raw, DBSE dollar that was not a details coin and would have graded G04 for around $400 which seemed fair to me at the time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
