<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cladking, post: 3950082, member: 68&quot;]I might add that BU&#039;s are vastly underpriced.&nbsp;&nbsp; They are underpriced because there is so little demand in part because people think all moderns are common, because the price guides are used to suppress the market, and because most BU&#039;s look so bad that nobody wants to pay good money for a BU roll when usually they are nothing but garbage.&nbsp; Put these three factors together and an extremely scarce coin like a BU &#039;82-P quarter wholesales for a paltry $5.90 each.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Don&#039;t be fooled by that wholesale price though because a true Unc, even an ugly one, sells for more at auction or on eBay.&nbsp; Nice specimens bring far stronger prices because it&#039;s nice attractive well made coins that get the attention for this date.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>There are probably fewer Unc &#039;82-P quarters than there were &#039;16-D dimes (any grade) in 1964 yet a nice attractive (VF or better?) cost hundreds of times more in today&#039;s money than a typical Unc &#039;82.&nbsp;&nbsp; This is the power of demand.&nbsp; People do everything in tandem.&nbsp; &#039;16-D dimes are still very popular and the quarter might never be.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
