Glad to see the seller came through and you got a solid deal!
There is a long thread on the PCGS forum, which seems to have more people that collect and flip modern US Mint items. I tried today but the wait...
@geekpryde I see why you would want to upgrade the Flying Eagle and I'm sure you will find a better example. The Wheat Cent is nice and lustrous....
Nice to see the numbers!
Congrats on completing the set!
That is very cool! The closest I recall is PCGS sharing one of my coins on a post they made on their Instagram page.
What you said is accurate. In terms of the increases, I believe it is a combination. Some of it is inflation, some is higher melt prices, some is...
I was not surprised that the obverse coin sold for a premium. That one is monster toned on my scale (unless one argues that a coin in 62 can't be...
I consider the original post a step below monster (high end; in the 5s on the 6 point scale).
For the items based on melt prices, yes it should be easy. For items that use an average of sales, not necessarily as it still takes human...
I still see coins where the price guide is higher (noticed it yesterday when looking up several random examples on GC). I think the biggest...
It is definitely nice and I see why others would bid it up. I'm also still a bit surprised it went this high. I looked at GC and it did set the...
In 2019, it was closer to the top end of the market for a reverse 62. Today $550 would be low and I would like it as well in the $700-$800 range....
I could see $3k-$4k if obverse toned. The nicest MS 62 I saw (in person) sold at Legend in April 2022 for $3,055. Today I would think the coin...
It's closer to 2 years in between each sale but one can still say that is a short period. The number of sales suggests it was more likely bought...
It started at $400 this time as opposed to $1, so that could have impacted the views and number of bidders. Even if the coin ends at the same...
I've liked the look of this Morgan since I first saw it at GC. Back in 2019, I thought over $500 was a lot for a reverse toned common date. So far...
I think your guess of the Apmex listing being an error is correct. They could have canceled the transaction after noticing it sold at that price...
Nicer toning, especially on a common date, will outpace the premium of higher grades. A toned MS 63 could easily sell above an untoned MS 67. But...
I was going to say something similar. For a blast white example or a lightly toned one, an MS 66 can be found for under $500. A nice MS 65 can be...
