<p>[QUOTE=&quot;doucet, post: 2215952, member: 46490&quot;]My interest is in coins from the Spanish peninsula. You must be careful with these as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>I know that not many collectors on the forum here collect Iberian types, but most everyone has an example or two.</p><p><br /></p><p>For those who know about the market and market trends I have a question.</p><p><br /></p><p>Why are Iberian coins so expensive? A lot of them are pretty crumby, and for the most part you can hardly buy one in worn out condition for under 50 to 75 dollars. Any in F or VF are going to fetch several hundred.</p><p><br /></p><p>My only option has been to sit back and search and search until someone is selling one that is misidentified or they just don&#039;t know what it is. I have to keep all purchases down under 100 or so.</p><p><br /></p><p>At the major auctions they almost always sell for estimate or above. Who&#039;s buying them?&nbsp; I don&#039;t think they are people on any forums.</p><p><br /></p><p>Any way, why do you think they are high priced.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
