    I paid $0.75 for a nicely detailed, original shape 1883 No Cent V Nickel, which is still a good unrealized gain!

    If you collect and SELL coins you really need to get the Grey Sheet book for the real price of the coins in my opinion. The red book 📕 is just a guide, in my opinion.

    1st lesson to any collector who has a item that has a book value. Book value is never even close to what somebody would actually buy it for! Your lucky to get 25% in some cases, maybe 10% if you can sell it at all. There are exceptions of couse but those are few and far between.

    These are type of people ruining the collecting hobby. The coins in the lot is pretty much all junks that coin stores will give you out for face value if you are being regular and nice enough, seller is using red book as selling tactic since he is technically not false advertising… red book value yes, real value no. Avoid any types of grab bags unless they come from reputable sellers. Or if you’re loaded with money and got tons of money to spend and looking for fun
