1960-D small over large date - need some help

jessewvu

I am trying to figure out if I could get this coin graded, and if it is worth it. Does anyone know what this coin would bring?

but it is use not worth much maybe $10

It is the double date RPM, the cherrypicker's coin, I sold a MS-63 RB in an old ANACS holder recently for $95

You have it correctly attributed, but I agree that it's not worth the cost to certify. I had a couple in PCGS 64RD last year that barely broke $100, I doubt you'd come close to recapping the grading fees on a circulated example.

That $100 price tag surprises me. I thought the PCGS price guide showed $300 for these, no? I've got one, but I bought it about 8 years ago in a PCI holder for $40.00. Thought about cracking and submitting to PCGS, but I guess it is not worth it. Plus I guess I would not sell it any time soon anyway.

Correct, Current BV is $315 for 64 RED.

but how about some values for my little coin AU55?

Either way, your coin is cool.

Overdate

but how about some values for my little coin AU55?


I had several XF and AU certified by PCGS a year or two ago, coins that I acquired in the mid-1960s for $1.25 each. I sold a few at coin shows for $25 to $30 each, am keeping the rest because I think they're undervalued. Much fewer have been certified than the 1955 Doubled Die, but the 1960-D overdate has only been listed in the Red Book for a few years and is not as widely known. Much of the demand is for registry sets, and MS64 and higher coins are usually bought for that purpose. I think that circulated specimens will eventually become more popular, but it might take a while.

Your coin is EF45. I do not believe it is valuable enough to warrant holdering for that reason alone.

Okay, I went back into my log book and got my actual net proceeds for the 1960-D small/large cents I've sold. Bear in mind the actual sales or hammer price is about 4-8% higher than the figures listed below, as I've netted out my ebay and/or PayPal fees from them:

PCGS 64RD:

March 2005: $140.00 (BST)
August 2005: $145.00 (BST)
September 2006: $178.24 (eBay)

PCGS 65RD

August 2005: $300.00 (BST)
Sept 2005: $335.00 (eBay)
October 2005: $245.86 (eBay)
January 2006: $212.57 (eBay)

So while I undervalued the 64RD in my earlier post, I still believe that an XF coin is not worth the costs to holder.

I currently have an AU58BN in my collection PCGS values it at $20 and I paid $22. The true answer to your question is: It is worth what someone else is willing to pay.
