Hello every one! Just wondering if $444 was a good price to pay for a NGC Pr66( old label)1950 proof Franklin? It is always hard to get good pics of a slabbed coin. Let alone trying to grade one on Ebay. ( at least for me) Also wondering what it may be worth? I have seen the price on PCGS website. $750 I think. ( I know this is for PCGS coins only.) Only a 1951 to complete this entire series. Next, on to those tough early Washington quarter proofs. Lets hear your thoughts! CLAW
It would really depend on how the coin looks. I paid $405 for my last one and I think $415 for the one before that. I sold the my first one for right at or right under what I paid....I can't remember for sure. If it has a good sharp strike, and no haze then I would say that it is a pretty good deal. NOTE: I haven't been watch the market on this date as close now that I own one. So check out Heritage and such and make sure you know what the going price is. Speedy
Hey SPEEDY!! I know you would step up to the plate. I guess I did not get as good of a deal as I thought. Cant be sure until I see the coin in hand. I JUST LOVE FRANKIES!!
Claw, These coins can be tricky....when you get the coin in hand you might see it is better than you thought! The first 1950 I bought was struck with wron dies and looked like a Business Strike. In fact, when I went to sell it I sent it to DLRC. They called me and told me that it wasn't a proof. The guy that called me was one of the mail Guys...Win...so I asked if he had the coin sitting there....he did and I started to point things out over the phone showing him that it was a proof. He agreeded The next time I had alittle bit better idea on what I was hunting and I got this one: With the low mintage...and a 66 as a grade (nice an high) I don't know if you can go wrong! Speedy
LOL! Harldy! In fact I feel really bad that I haven't completed my collection yet, but I haven't found a 1951 or 1952 that fits in with the rest of my set. Maybe some day! Speedy
