I'm sure there is some demand I bet you could get $50 for it pretty effortlessly.

I would have to doubt that without seeing it.

Ah, you never know what these this will go for. If someone is lookin for one you could expect it to go for alteast a few bucks maybe not exactly $50 but definatly over $20. If I were looking for one I would snatch it up for $30+ but I cant aford to buy anything these days or atleast not till gold falls into my hands. Sorry...

It would really depend on if it was a contemporary counterfeit, a nineteenth century electrotype, or a modern replica. The contemporary counterfeit would probably be several hundred dollars, an electro maybe $100 to $150, and a modern replica maybe $5 if it is a good one.

The coin in question is a trinkett, not a restrike, contemporary counterfeit or deceptive copy, and would have a value of about $5 in my opinion.
