<p>[QUOTE="GH#75, post: 24633687, member: 101202"]I don't think he knew what he was doing. Personally, I think he may have made up the prices himself. I was talking with his family and they said that he thought wear, damage, or "colors" added value to them. Colors could mean toning or verdigris whether they were appealing or not, and he put a sticker on some of the bags to mark them as such. Also, he never spent anything on his coins except for the 1944 and 1958 wheat cents and a fake 1797 8 reales coin that he got at a thrift shop... which he thought was real. Everything else was something he already had or something he found in circulation.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
