Hola
Just seen this site so I thought I would share my cob find of 9 hours ago. Not bad for 2" down on bed rock after all this time. Any ideas of its worth?

My guess is around $75-$125 US. Yours is certainly better than this one for $65:

By the way, your's is not a cob (hand struck), it is a milled (machine struck) bust or portrait coin.

Great find!

$65 is overpriced and is why the seller is accepting best offers. The coin is still for sale.

Well, since the seller has 2,636 other listings currently on Ebay he's probably not in too big a hurry.

Right, and that's why you overprice it and wait to someone to offer close. It's what the whole best offer thing is about on Ebay.

I don't believe the coin sold; one offer expired.
