If I knew the exact grade, like a MS61, 62 or 63, I think my kids could negotiate harder for a better price.The fluctuation throughout the MS grades is dramatic. Swhuck's thoughts are difficult to ascertain at Heritage. I use their spreadsheet program and get direct updates from them monthly. There have been only three instances of an exact MS60 grade sold in the past 16 years. That makes for a poor base to average out fair market value. The swing is almost $3500 at the hammer price. Knock out the highest sale, in MS60 grade, and it's average is only $475+. The last one was sold 3 years ago. I bought mine at a live auction and was able to see it in hand before I bid. I didn't see any evidence of cleaning, but then, what do I know. Even after NCS finished with it, it still has good luster (proof like), excellent cartwheeling, no discoloration and a few very minor contact marks in the fields. My guess would be MS62 or 63.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
