<p>[QUOTE=&quot;akeady, post: 7394101, member: 83175&quot;]The problem I have with your calculations is that you&#039;re quoting the profit as a percentage of the selling price, not the purchase price.&nbsp;&nbsp; That would be a profit margin, while I&#039;m referring to a markup or a profit percentage.</p><p><br /></p><p>I factored in everything.</p><p><br /></p><p>The hammer price plus 19.5% is £11,651.25.&nbsp;&nbsp; At today&#039;s XE exchange rate, that&#039;s $15,968.14.</p><p><br /></p><p>Assuming it sells for $29750, that&#039;s 86.3% profit.</p><p><br /></p><p>I didn;t mean you personally about the coin - I should have said &quot;if one missed it&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>As to the price itself - the CNG example from Triton XXI sold for $32500 plus fees, though it has a different obverse with a bare head and doesn&#039;t have holes.</p><p>Maybe the Naville price was a bargain and it&#039;s worth nearly twice as much - as with all coins, there&#039;s nothing forcing us to to buy them at the quoted or any price.&nbsp;&nbsp; It looks like Nilus have some wiggle room on price and can still make a big profit <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>ATB,</p><p>Aidan.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
