I am going, my 1st time @ FUN. In fact, my first time at any coin show other than the small local ones (30-40 dealers, tops). I hope to walk the...

Very narrow niche + New Money Wealthy in the home countries of the coins = Rapidly Rising Prices
How much of a premium are these NY Hoard Morgans selling at compared to regular NGCs for the same grade ?
Thanks, doubt I would find anything there, but maybe others can.
I haven't been active in MSDs in a while, but we have some specialists in those coins, maybe they can chime in.
Thanks Steve...just curious, if you have a special bill (i.e., Hawaii or North Africa or something like those) would you pay up more for another...
It's amazing....the TPGs give + and * designations and yet their own graders can be off 1-2 grades. But we're supposed to believe they are...
I think more and more "collectors" are into a few choice bills and/or coins from various series....not collecting entire series like kids 40 or 50...
I think there will be enough for me @ FUN to have fun. :D

Great posts from Randy, Trogdor, and a few others in this thread. :cigar: As a CFA and CFP with 30+ years of experience in the financial markets,...
Any coins selling for huge premiums -- like the Morgans and Saints, circa 1989-90 -- are subject to a 50-75% (or more !! :eek:) decline as the air...
