Post by: serial on December 07, 2015, 10:28:01 PM
This is one right? How much is one of these worth? I cant find a value on the normal 1 Indian die, I have it simply listed as scarce

I think The Nobles coin is a better looking coin and that's why the higher estimate and the $80 was achieved on the day.
You have to remember tho there are not that many "Variety" collectors compared to number of collectors that don't worry about them at the moment.
Maybe with the TPG's slowly recognising the different Varieties this may change and these particular coins may increase in value as the collector base expands and the demand for them increases .
Only time will tell guy's :ok:
