UNC INCUSED 50 CENT VALUE

I've been offered this coin for $200.Is this a good price as there doesn't seem to be too many references as to the value of these in
higher grade.Thanks in advance for any help

Very hard to tell from those pic's steve.
Looks like a baggy MS coin from what I can see of it.
Bashed up examples of these sell on eBay for $30-$40 and EF coins normally go for $50- $80.
I don't recall seeing an true MS coin listed yet so I have NO idea of the eBay  value.
There is also no reference to the incused coin on Blue sheet either.
Greg McDonalds book however lists it as;
UNC $160
Ch UNC $200

A fair offer on this coin would be $120-$140 (Nobody pays book price)

Just my thoughts Mate, I have been wrong before so I may be wrong with this assumption.
But I doubt it :diablo:

Thanks for that mate,I don't think this one is choice but I have asked for some more photos.I was thinking that if this is MS60-62 it still may be worth snapping up for $200 as they are so scarce in UNC and I think that will be a bargain price in the years to come

These coins have a special 'angle' that makes them look better than they are.
Get a top down pic. No angles and make a decision from that.

Don't go near this unless you have some better pic's or can see it "in hand".
I bought one that looked great in the same "Side on" pics and it turned out to be an EF coin :dash1:
Ask for a scan and a front on set of pic's before you commit, It's only a couple of hundred bucks but why waste it on a possibly $50 coin.
Due Diligence is required when buying high grade cupro/nickel coins :ok:

Yeah thanks Rob I've asked for photos from above so I can see all of the detail.This one seems to have the queens hair chatter  (looks like PMD but many of them have it) so I'll need to see that up close as well

I couldn't grade it from those images.  I wouldn't offer more than $100 due to the risk involved.

I bought this 4-5 years ago? Unc $150 How time flies  
Once again sorry for quality of photos IPhone

[purplepennyhunter]

This is Mark's PCGS MS64 although it isn't labelled as incuse, just a regular millenium. It cost about $300 graded but I would suggest it could go for a lot more at auction today.

looks very nice

[stevo1962]

Got some better photos and now I'm not sure that it's uncirculated.I told the seller that I thought it would only grade aUNC because of the
scratches and dings on the obverse
