25-33% is damn good if you ask me. If I had to guesstimate mine, somewhere around 10%.
Holy bull-eating-lions Mikey! That's a fabulous example of the type. :greedy:
Phenomenal coin! And I loved every last bit of your minutia. :bookworm:
Yes, you're right of course. Collectors of moderns prefer slabs, and will pay a premium for them. I should have qualified my comment to include...
