Would like to thank all those who replied to my original post and for the content provided within...some solid and thoughtful information. Recently got the CAC submission back and the good news is 10 of the 17 coins sent in received the CAC green bean. Unfortunately (but not surprisingly), however, the 1909 MS67BN Lincoln did not. Overall, I would consider my first (and, most likely, only) CAC submission a success. Although, 1 or 2 of the coins that didn't CAC sort of left me shaking my head in subtle disbelief.

Hello all. Been "lurking" on the boards as a member since 2017, soaking up as much information as I can. I have a question and thought I would create my first post to get the opinion of others on the board. I recently had a coin graded by NGC that is a low pop coin, having only 4 graded by NGC (and none graded by PCGS). The coin is a 1909 Lincoln Cent (P Mint, No VDB) and is graded MS67BN. The coin is currently on its way to CAC courtesy of a local dealer. The dealer said he would be willing to make an offer on the coin, but how do you place a value on a coin with no previous sells (none to my knowledge)? what would be a good offer? NGC price guide places a value of $1250 for the coin...should I just go by this valuation? Not sure I am going to sell, but I could use the funds to purchase other coins I have on the want list. I have an MS66BN (as well as a 66RD and 66RB) example in my collection and, placing the coins side by side, the 66 is a little more visually appealing to my eyes (thus the reason I may be willing to part with it). Thanks in advance for any information/opinion. Regards, Brian Disclaimer: Please forgive me if this is the incorrect forum in which to ask this question. Was going to ask the question in the Marketplace forum, but I am not sure I will be selling the coin.
