[QUOTE="treylxapi47, post: 1982393, member: 41863"]I've said repeatedly in this thread, in almost every single one of my responses, that I do not want to buy this coin. Period. My discussion of price was simply in relation to how you would go about putting a number on such a coin from both the buyers perspective and from a sellers perspective. There are some interesting factors with the series coming into play, eye appeal, stated grade, the plus attribute, the price jump at the next grade level, etc. So how do you set a number on that as a buyer? as a seller? and in a case like this where the two opinions could be drastically different, by even double the price? If I'm a buyer and I would pay $3K but the only seller who has this fairly unique coin in grade, eye appeal, and label, etc has it priced at $5200, how do you bridge that gap? If it's a trade secret, I can live with that, but ultimately I'm just trying to see how in the future would be best to handle these types of situations. And to be clear, I'm getting married in like 3 weeks, coin buying is out for me right now fellas, to dispel any veiled illusion that I am somehow in the hunt for this coin. I'm not.[/QUOTE]
