Message:: [QUOTE="JJK78, post: 773553, member: 19207"]Well you can read back through this very thread (EDITED: may have been another thread - gold buff maybe?) and see that I questioned her just the same as you and pretty much got the same thing. You also have to remember that "right now" was almost a month ago when the last update was posted. I tried to check Ebay but can only manage to see completed listings back to the 15th but I definitely remember some $10 eagles going for $1200+ and that is just Ebay. If you have an anxious buyer at a coin shop or show then I could definitely see someone paying the higher prices quoted... Some numbers may be a bit high but gold was also +$100oz higher and the "final numbers" had just been released causing an uproar and I saw people paying ridiculous prices for these OVERNIGHT. Since then Ebay has been flooded with people trying to make quick money, Gold has dropped and the 08 mintage numbers are no longer front page news so it is no suprise to see prices slipping some. I just hope the 2008 W series all start to dissapear from Ebay and get into collectors hands. With 3/4 coins in the set being lowest mintage's yet hopefully these will dry up from the market in the next few years and the price will double a few more times![/QUOTE]
