I just don't see this warranting a premium , as your suggesting of over $700.00 or more over the MS67 (*) star designated sales , without FSB's as well . Now I may be all wet with this thinking , given the introduction in an annual sale such as Long Beach. A buyer may just jump into that with a $1,200 bid .
