What would you pay.

[AstroTrain]

So I bought this on a spur of the moment feeling. After I paid I started to think maybe I made a hasty decision.

 

What would you pay? I'll tell you later what I did pay.

 

[mkman123]

gold bean correct?

[AstroTrain]

It's got the bean, and I think maybe I put more thought into the bean than the actual coin

[MarkFeld]

There's virtually no value spread between a PR65 and a PR66. It should be worth about $35, if the coin looks like an average PR66.

[yonico]

PR66 is available HERE for $38 buy-it-now price, PR67 that just misses cameo (or a star) is $65 HERE , also buy-it-now.

 

so the absolute MAX price i would consider for the OP's coin would be somewhere between the 2, but probably closer to the $38.

I have to agree with everyone else, if you paid more than $45 for it, you paid for the opportunity of having a slab with a gold bean.

+1

 

I have to agree with this.

About the same as for the quarter in another thread -- $25 or $30.

No one has mentioned the rotated reverse. If those 2 pics go together its a pretty good rotation.

I would have it regraded and add the mint error designation. however then you would looses the gold

bean.

 

the coin is rotated in the holder slightly, however it looks looks the reverse has alot more rotation than that. One would have to put a ruler on the date to see if there is enough difference to send in. I believe it has to be 15 degrees.

I think people go a little nuts for a gold bean. I'm guessing you paid about $60.

[physics-fan3.14]

I'd pay $35 for it.

[AstroTrain]

I guess I shouldn't be too upset $43 was my final total. I was thinking $30ish after... When I was buying it I was thinking "great deal!!" After I was thinking "it's not cameo, what was I thinking"

I might go a little higher: $35 or $40. Over $50 and you paid too much. IMHO.

 

P.S. Just saw your post. No worries.

[coinman1794]

I do not think this would be considered a rotated reverse. Even if there is a slight rotation, and I'm not at all convinced of one, it would not be enough to qualify for a Mint Error.

 

As others have stated, there is almost no difference in value between PF65 and PF66. Even if the coin is PF67, it is a $75 coin.

[e1cnr]

$43 is not an unreasonable price. I would probably go $30 cuz I don't really collect proof Franklins, and generic proofs from the 50's seem to have been sliding recently.

 

You are upside down at most what it costs for dinner at McDonalds...

[FranklinHalfAddict]

I'd go $25 on that.

I see circulation wear on the bean. I give it a VF30.

[ldhair]

It's a nice looking coin.

[yonico]

That's exactly what I said I'd be willing to pay, you're ok at $43

[mkman123]

$43 isn't too bad
