I like this one. Too bad I'm out of money for the month

BigRed · March 6, 2008 9:23PM

I like it to, just honest wear. What will it go for????????

<< I like this one. >>

i agree, though i tend to prefer a tad more detail. it looks like in this case, pcgs actually undergraded it slightly. i'd of guessed vg-8.

Its every bit as nice as my '06 VG8.

Often it seems when PCGS apparently undergrades, they actually netted the coin for something. Just cant tell with this one.

It SHOULD go for around $350. But, considering how crazy people have been lately with auctions it might go for $600!

I had considered that too. If you look in eBay stores there are a couple of DBQ graded by PCGS as VG8 and VG10 that both look worse than this one.

I would tend to agree. There's a lot of meat on that one for just a G-6. Perhaps the graders saw something on the coin that we cannot see on the image.

Well its not gonna go for $255.

I dont even know why I bid.....although I did get my VG8 in a Heritage sale this past summer for $374 (with the juice).

Dude, you're dreamin'

Bidders have been paying stupid money for stuff like this lately. I won't be suprised if someone pays $600 for this coin

I'll bet you $5 face junk silver that this does not sell for over $600. Interested?

Nope. But I still stand by my prediction. Of course, I've been wrong a few times before

Why oh why did I wait until 2004 to start collecting coins? Hard to believe this coin could have been had for under $200 just a few years ago.

That price is painful to look at now. Crap, now I'm depressed

JoeLewis · March 11, 2008 1:03PM

$424. I guess I was wrong. I'm gladd I didn't take that bet

gecko109 · March 11, 2008 1:04PM

$424 is still very strong money on that coin.

Maybe not if it upgrades to an 8 or a 10.

doh · March 11, 2008 2:13PM

I paid under $1k for a crusty PCGS VF25 1805 less than two years ago. If a good is bringing nearly half that I'm very happy with my purchase

Actually...I was happy with it the moment I bought it. Love those DBQs!
