Aren't these prices alittle high??

[Bruceswar]

I just got a coin magazine... and lucky for me it featured the lincoln cent.... After looking at some good pics I think my Lincoln would grade at 35 - 40... anyhow .. this mag had a coin price guide.... I was looking at some Early cents... Well I got one that is really worn... AG - 3 1794 ... In that grade they had these prices...

Head of 93 $700.00

Head of 94 $125.00

Head of 95 $150.00

 

Does that not seem alittle high to you?? or is it just me...

The Gray Sheet has a Liberty Cap Cent in Good at $265. That would be for a no problem, nice looking coin. So those prices don't seem unreasonable.

I agree with Carl, these numbers are in line with today's market. The 1794, Head of '93 coins are so rare that you would be lucky to get a CHANCE to buy one those coins @ $700. The price could be over $1,000 today.

 

Early coins have really gotten to be quite expensive in all grades.

[Bruceswar]

well I guess I made a better purchase than thought last year at $15.00 bucks for one in AG - 3

[BillJones]

Yup!

 

If your coin has a readable date and the outline of the head, you "feltched" it at $15.

[Bruceswar]

date is very weak but head is ok.. back = pretty much gone..

'94 VF30 ANACS HD of 94--sold for $1207.

'94 XF45 PCGS HD of 94--sold for $2760.

'94 G4 ANACS HD of 93--sold for $948.

 

No listing for a Head of 95.
