<p>[QUOTE=&quot;borgovan, post: 740412, member: 13016&quot;]For your purposes, reality trumps the guides. The eBay and Teletrade selling prices reflect reality. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As you thoughtfully pointed out, though, those are sometimes sight-unseen (or might as well be) coins, and they are thus treated as commodities, and therefore they often get no premium.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The coin you mentioned has what you described as attractive toning. Depending on the degree of toning, this can drastically affect the price, and price guides may no longer apply. Toning can bring anywhere from no premium to many, many multiples of price guide pricing. I often pay $20-$30 for a toned coin that would be maybe a dollar or two untoned. How much do you like the toning? </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>While resale value should be considered, the real question is, what is the coin worth to you?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
