What do you think of this?

I am thinking about going for this - what do you experts think - is the price going to soar?

    Is the difference in the color between the obverse and the reverse just an effect of the photo?

    Looks fishy to me.

    $18 to $25 should be a fair value, I think.

    Shep, since you asked "is the price going to soar?" I will give you the brutally honest truth: no.

    In VF, this date has risen only from £7 to £10 in ten years. Some 2004 books price it at £15, but I take those prices with a serious grain of salt. This particular example is not even worth VF money IMO - it appears to have been cleaned.

    My personal opinion, as is that of many here, is if you are going to buy one of these, buy at least a British EF. The extra money spent is worth it if you are not collecting them by date.
