Did the market for Franklin's hit an air pocket back in 2009 ? I saw a thread over at CU saying some Franklins and FBL's were down 60-80% from a...
Wow, 61 bids on this 1879-S Reverse of '78 with 1 day left....I considered bidding yesterday when it was in the $350 range....
Agreed...if someone has a special coin, I'll pay up. In fact it happened a year ago on one of my Morgans. Guy wanted $900....I didn't notice the...
MD, a few people may have acted like that but MOST of the ones I have dealt with have come down enough to where I put in a real quality bid. Alot...
