Question about a Commemorative

Hi everyone. Can someone tell the range of values for an 1893 World's Columbian Exposition Chicago, kind denoted as 'minted' by our U.S. Treasury Department? It belongs to a friend so I don't know the coin's condition, which is why I'm asking for a range of values, depeding on the condition. Thank you.

    They can range up into several hundred dollars, but most have circulated and probably have a value of $10-$15. A picture would help immensely.

    Most of the Columbian coins that grade under mint state would pretty much fall into this price range, in my opinion. It is however on of my favorite commemorative designs, despite the lower value.

    Hi Susan, long time no see. For F-AU grades they go for $8-$15.

    Thanks, gentlemen! Nice to see you, Steve. image I haven't been doing much with my coins for quite a while because our business has been really slow for almost three years now.

    I'll ask the guy who owns the commen if he wants to supply a photo, but your information will be excellent for me to give to him. I own a couple of the Colubian Exposition commens myself...lol.
