<p>[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 1366223, member: 27832"]You're talking about the true-value content of the lots, but you're missing the other half of the equation: the buyer's knowledge and expectations. If the buyer only has a few 1940's and 1950's wheats from circulation, they might be ecstatic over twenty or thirty low-grade common dates that they don't already have. If they're a beginning collector, a bunch of cleaned and/or damaged coins might seem like treasure, and they might never learn enough to see it differently. In that case, both buyer and seller are happy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
