<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paddy54, post: 4592644, member: 19250&quot;]I haven&#039;t paid under $60 in good to fair condition in quite some time now....if you can find them at a show. Vf-20 and up you are going to pay up. I buy or trade for any cap bust half dime that I can aquire at a fair price.</p><p>Most dealers you and I both&nbsp; know here in Maryland tell me they&nbsp; dont get the opportunity to obtain type coins as such ,and when they do its because collectors like you and I&nbsp; have passed on. </p><p>I&#039;ve worked&nbsp; at shows where a person would ask if I knew if any bust quarters were available in the room ? Someone wanting one for a type set.</p><p>I am fortunate to know so many dealers working the shows and many know me&nbsp; well enough and what I collect.&nbsp; So yeah while setting up before the show opens they will show me and give me a fair price, even some wholesalers come to me also and offer me coins.</p><p>But the last few times they have their inventory isn&#039;t anything to write home about.</p><p>Now I will buy within reason , but Ralph who runs the show had a seated h-10 proof dime</p><p>I mistaken priced at $90&nbsp; as the obv. Was perfect however the rev. Was atotal mess with huge gouges of missing medal , i had asked him to hold it for me until after the show , so he said what do you want to about it ? I said as soon as i can get to an atm I&#039;ll give you the $90 bucks...Ralph said 90 bucks thats 900.00 bucks its a very low mintage.</p><p>I was like pass...buying a problem coin eyes wide open&nbsp; at a doable price is one thing... paying close to a grand isnt happening. And that one still sits in his inventory.</p><p>So to answer your question til one of us pass on and our collection is back in the market ...no you wont find them...and yeah I feel your pain as i buy any I can afford with the hopes of finding a marriage I dont have....but to be honest even after I sit down and do the attribution if it is one I have, I still keep it, instead of cutting it loose again.....why because you just dont find them .</p><p>So to answer your question if they become popular&nbsp; no they become hard to obtain until a collection like mine is sold after my passing.</p><p>And yes their prices like any thing else&nbsp; that&nbsp; is hard to find will pay up.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
