    Hi,

    I'm trying to figure out if this makes any sense. This PCGS MS-62 1910 Caballito Peso just sold for $370 (plus $7.95 shipping):

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/1910-Mexico-Peso-PCGS-MS62-KM-453-/282345440797?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&nma=true&si=uE%2B8iL%2Frd7oQd5xzhS9n08tXvjY%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

    This NGC MS-62 1910 Caballito Peso is listed for $295:

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mexico-Silv...469770?hash=item465d721aca:g:7tIAAOSwjDZYgZoC

    They are both the same coin, and the only difference is that one was graded by NGC and the other by PCGS (and is in a secure slab). Besides this, to my eyes, the NGC one in fact looks better. What do you think explains why one just sold for far more than the other one that's still listed?

    As a side note, I recently bought this NGC MS-62 1913 Caballito Peso for $239:

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/142258933249?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

    Even though 1913 is valued slightly higher than 1910 in the NGC price guide, I paid less than either of these. I wonder why!

    Could be a plethora of reasons

    Pcgs usually but not always brings more $ than Ngc
    To me the Pcgs is better struck and not as many large bag marks
    Biddiots ......

    Was just going to say PCGS one is better struck. More detail on the head of Liberty and the head of the eagle
