<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 185382, member: 112"]Tracy - while I understand and greatly admire your enthusiasm for the modern mint products there is something I feel I should say for the benefit of others. These highest prices recorded should absolutley <u>not</u> be used as an indicator of things to come in regard to these coins. The only thing that these prices mean is that someone was willing to pay that much for the coins. It does not mean that they were justified in doing so. To the contrary, it very well may have been, and usually is a huge mistake. </p><p><br /></p><p>Anytime you or anyone else wants to know a fair price for a given coin they need to take an average. And the correct way to take an average is throw out the highest and lowest prices and all of the others that are within a few dollars of those highest and lowest numbers, and average the rest. Only in this way can you determine what a fair price is.</p><p><br /></p><p>So please, do not be misled.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
