Like these - 2004 FDC - $7.51 [URL="http://cgi.ebay.com/2004-P-D-Keelboat-Nickel-First-Day-Covers_W0QQitemZ8392738548QQcategoryZ41089QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]HERE[/URL] 2005 FDC - $15 [URL="http://cgi.ebay.com/2005-BISON-SEALED-FIRST-DAY-COIN-COVER-FIRST-STRIKE-Q69_W0QQitemZ8394401212QQcategoryZ41089QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]HERE[/URL] That kinda puts a different light on things. You need to keep in mind when trying to assess current values - it's not the highest prices or the lowest prices that provides guidelines - it's the average prices ;)[/QUOTE]
