<p>[QUOTE="mark_h, post: 1081016, member: 3726"]I did not toss the toning factor out. But when you look at both ebay and heritage you can see where the "toning" played into the final price. Those are the exceptions not the rule. I am not knocking toned coins - just that the flucuation is even more pronounced when it comes to that. As I said it was weird not looking at the coins - I did look at a few. I think one seller got about an extra 100 dollars by calling the coin PL. It exhibited signs of being PL but the NGC holder did not state that. Not saying the coin is not PL, but I did not study it real hard.</p><p><br /></p><p>No I did not verify the dates - only went back 24 auctions. I think most of them were recent - late 2010 and 2011, but I did not confirm it. If you get to some of the rare dates and grades you would probably not find any sold on ebay - I think they limit it to 30 days on line. On heritage I think they go with the last 4 or 5 - I usually pull up the list.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
