<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sholom, post: 553194, member: 17753&quot;]I do a few things if I&#039;m seriously considering a purchase that&#039;s more than a trivial amount of cash:</p><p><br /></p><p>1.&nbsp; I look at ValleyCoins, see what price they have.&nbsp; I see a 1943-S ranges from MS-63 $15 to MS-65 $25</p><p><br /></p><p>2.&nbsp; I look at Numismedia (which I think I heard are a bit on the low side) -- I see there that MS-61 is $10, MS-63 is $16, and MS-65 is $29</p><p><br /></p><p>3.&nbsp; I look at &quot;completed sales&quot; on eBay, and see what they sold for.</p><p><br /></p><p>The problem with this strategy in your case, however, is that you really don&#039;t know the MS-grade . . . so, given the prices I just mentioned, assuming it is at least, say, MS-62 -- you might be getting a bargain or you might be overpaying!</p><p><br /></p><p>So, the above is not much help in your particular case, but might be of help in the future for you (or someone else)</p><p><br /></p><p>I should note something else . . . I know next-to-nothing about Mercs!&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
