http://numismedia.com/fmv/prices/3scnt/pricesgd.shtmlThis will give you a reasonable estimate.
To be safe take 70% of the value listed there and you are probably good on a fair price.

You can go "below" the lowest grade fyi. "G4" is actually a decent coin without significant damage, just wear.
If it has a date and isn't bent it's probably at least AG2 or AG3.
