1876 Indian realistic purchase price?

[CincinnatiKid]

Hello all.
I'm wanting to upgrade condition on an 1876 IH for my set. I seek one in EF condition.
Can you please provide a fair purchase price?
Thanks
Peace

You may wish to follow and jump into this bidding; it looks like an EF or better:

Thanks Mackaydon.
I should have clarified a bit more.
Not interested in an eBay bid. Just inquiring as to a general purchase price at a local coin dealer.
Found a nice one this day, but the dealer would accept nothing less than "Redbook" price, which is highly elevated.
Peace

Cincy Kid:
You can use the Ebay successful bid (if it's lower than what you have been quoted by your LCD) as leverage with him for a better price since the Ebay bid will represent present value versus historic value as shown in the Redbook.
