<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dave92029, post: 1000319, member: 26916&quot;]Thanks Elaine</p><p><br /></p><p>But I wonder what the Bid price / how much AMPEX would pay to buy the same coins would be? I own two FS coins so I&#039;m not trying to be negative, but I see a big difference on eBay between high ask prices and what others are willing to pay. There are lots of auctions with high ask prices and no bids. I just picked up a Jefferson proof for $680...almost $200 below AMPEX&#039;s asking price.</p><p><br /></p><p>I wonder how much wiggle room, AMPEX has from those stated prices. If you came to them and offered $100-$150 lower than their ask price on the $800-$900 proofs would they accept? Six of the FS are a reasonable amount (approx. $700) above current melt - $650.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Mint&#039;s limited sale of 1/2 oz gold eagles has probably increased demand and sale of the FS. The FS sell for a relatively small premium to the Eagles and they come in a very nice gold box and simulated wood case.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
