I have a Uniden Grant that I am thinking about letting it go. I am the only owner of it and I got it in the mid-'80s. I am just wondering what it might be worth. It has expanded frequency range and the clarifier is unlocked. I still don't know if I want to sell or not.

I paid $80 for mine a couple of years ago from a mobile cb shop in Houston. It's not near as nice looking as yours but it does have some extra channels though.
I really like this radio. Everyone I talk to on sideband tell me it sounds clean and clear. I run it with a Astatic Road Devil mic.

I would think $150 for yours would be a decent price.

Letters worn off around the channel selector is typical of the early Presidents. Your letters look great, and should fetch $150 or more because of that fact. It’s not a front plate type that you can decal over or easily replace, so having a pristine front is of primary concern to discernible buyers of that model.
 
One of the best cb radios ever made IMHO. Kissing Cousin to the original Cobra 148.
Not a powerhouse but had good audio, great receive and stable on ssb.
The layout of the controls put everything in easy reach while driving.
I had one in the big truck years ago with a one pill Messenger put out about 40 watts peak into a Francis 5' whip.
My advice, unless you really need the Coin don't sell it. They are almost impossible
to find in the condition of yours.
