szugelder Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I have an 1878 8TF Vam 2 - NGC 60 coming back to me. I cannot find a value for this coin. As was suggested in the Red Book thread, I checked CDN Grey Sheet, Ebay Sold, and Great Collections auction archives. I hope this link thing works so you know I'm not making it up: https://www.ngccoin.com/certlookup/4727009-001/60/ Any other resources to check, thanks. Link to post Share on other sites
BipolarBaby Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 It appears ms 62s are selling for around 200$. So maybe a 150$ coin? Link to post Share on other sites
CRAWTOMATIC Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 You can also try PCGS Coinfacts and search for the variety. The prices listed are generally higher than average though. That lists a VAM 2 60 at $175. Link to post Share on other sites

It also comes as an app which I use quite a bit for info while out in the field. I don't know all the details behind how the rarity & survival estimates are calculated but I've been an analyst of some sort my whole life. If I presume the data metrics is the same across the board for all coins then it's at least a baseline for additional stats. Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Craw looks pretty close $175ish … and Vam-2 is pretty common and does not add any premium to the coin What probably detracted from the coins grade but I THINK IS COOL is the reeded edge markings on the obverse from adjacent coins in the bag. 4 sets of them is pretty unique Edited May 1, 2019 by jgrinz Link to post Share on other sites
