Here is something else I found that might be an even closer example. The 1929-S AU 58+ Buffalo in the link below sold for $517.49 in March 2021. Guide is currently $62 for a 58+ and $500 for a 65 (with sales in the upper $300s). Guide for a 66 is $1,000 with sales in the $600-$800 range. So a 58+ brought 65+ prices. https://www.greatcollections.com/Coin/957496/1929-S-Buffalo-Nickel-PCGS-AU-58-CAC-Toned A second 58+ of the same date (1929-S) is listed for auction ending in a few weeks. It will be interesting to track it and see how it does. The result could be good information for the 1923 in this thread. If the 29-S brings the same or more than the 2021 auction, that will be a good indication that the 1923 would not be worth regrading (as the value in the 58+ holder would approach 66 levels). https://www.greatcollections.com/Coin/1181013/1929-S-Buffalo-Nickel-PCGS-AU-58-Toned
OMG, these people are crazy. Just one more question, does NGC have everyman sets? I have a fantastic toned 1938 Jefferson Nickel that came back AU58.
I haven't seen one but it might exist. From what I observed, it's mainly PCGS coins that get this crazy premium. And they have to have a plus; just a "58" isn't enough to bring the super strong money.
I don't see AU 58+ for that coin. Can you post picture of the coin? If it's truly an AU58 the True View Image is really deceiving.
Bumping this thread since the AU 58+ I mentioned is about to end tomorrow. It is already at $752, so we are looking at 66 money for a 58+....this is a good sign for the coin from the original poster.
Here's the TrueView. I can definitely see the AU58 in this one, but not the OP coin. Numismedia says $38. It's a topsy-turvy world out there in coin land.
