1960 ICG Small Date MS 67 RD Lincoln Cent Penny 1c Red: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1960-ICG-Sm...052010?hash=item41a5885eaa:g:D~IAAOSwzgRW1NJy
Can't say from those pictures. This one sold for $3348.75 in November 2013 (granted the one I linked was a PCGS coin). If it could cross at 67, it would be worth a bundle. If it doesn't cross at grade, it's worth significantly less.
OK - maybe not the same coin http://www.ebay.com/itm/1960-Lincol...4a85875&pid=100005&rk=2&rkt=6&sd=281950052010
Yes, I was just looking at that one. The prices are all over the map! For apparently the same coin, grade and grader. I don't get it. What makes the first one worth $2,380.00?
It's not, necessarily. The seller is asking $2380 for it. There's frequently a big difference between what a seller wants and the market price. I would be absolutely shocked if they got that much for that coin unless they crossed it over to PCGS at grade. In the case of the $145 one with the overexposed pics, it's also hard to tell, but that one might be a 66 instead of a 67. That, in combination with the ICG plastic probably accounts for the pricing.
A seller can ask whatever they want! NEVER will get it BUT will get the rest of his auctions looked at!!
I don't think there's any real expectation among knowledgeable numismatists that an ICG MS67 Lincoln would cross at grade to either PCGS or NGC. I'd be valuing this coin around the 65 level, especially given the execrable images.
Assuming the grade here is correct, the "max" (Fair Market Value) would be $350. 1960 ICG Small Date MS 67 RD Lincoln Cent Penny 1c Red Valued at $3,400, asking $2,380.00.
Yes, that site has been added to my bookmarks. Thanks! It's shocking the prices some people ask for and think they might get! I thought there was something special about this coin I was missing. Buyer beware I guess. Since people are putting those kinds of asking prices out there, I guess there are idiots (people with money to burn) willing to pay it.
Honestly, not really. If you search Ebay ended auctions, and include "not sold" in the search, you'll find that the vast majority of this ridiculousness goes unsold.
