1916 Mexico 1c, KM415, NGC XF40

How can I determine a fair price to ask for this? I've read that the Krause book isn't very reliable, and mine is 3 years old, anyway.

 

Can anyone help?

My info is from 2005 also. I tried a search on eBay for graded specimens and nothing came up.

 

Thanks!

Nice Mexican decimal, Chris. It's tough to price these, since the collectors specializing in the series are usually after mint state examples and there's just not enough general interest in the rest of the collectors. With mintage of 500,000 pieces, this is the key in the 1916-1949 1 Centavo series.

Yeah, I was really excited when I learned about 4 years ago that it was a key date. Wouldn't you know! Just when I thought it was time to sell it. Are world collectors really that spoiled? Just try and complete any 19th century U.S. coin series in MS.
