<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gboulton, post: 1252878, member: 27043&quot;]Numismedia&#039;s got em in the $10-$15 range at MS63-64.&nbsp; There&#039;s a pretty nice jump at 65, and then real premiums, so they say, at 66 and above.</p><p><br /></p><p>PCGS&#039;s price guide isn&#039;t far off from that.</p><p><br /></p><p>Around here, circulated Ikes frequently get given as change at an LCS.&nbsp; Nice AU-BU examples carry a VERY small premium, going maybe $1.50-$2.00.&nbsp; The occasional slabbed examples I&#039;ve seen seem to go about 75% or so of what FMV and PCGS suggest.&nbsp; *shrug*</p><p><br /></p><p>Personally, if it were me, I think I might pull the 10 best examples out, submit &#039;em, and see if you can&#039;t get an MS-66 or better out of there.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Granted, it&#039;ll take a good while to go through all 1000 that carefully...but you said yourself, you like looking through coins, and at $100+, might be worth the time.</p><p><br /></p><p>Worst case, you haven&#039;t lost anything...even if they come back as 64&#039;s-65&#039;s, they&#039;re likely to cover the grading fees if you don&#039;t mind going to slower/cheaper route.</p><p><br /></p><p>=========</p><p><br /></p><p>Perhaps another angle might be simply to shoot a picture of, oh, 10-20 of them, and then offer them on here or on e-bay, described as you did above, in lots of &quot;10 for $19.95&quot; or something.&nbsp; To be honest, plenty of folks are likely to pay 2x face for a batch or two of those, just to take the shot I mentioned above, figuring it&#039;s no great loss if they don&#039;t find a real gem.&nbsp; Heck, I&#039;d probably take a roll at that price, just for the fun factor.&nbsp; Worst case, I&#039;d drop the nicest one in my 7070, and toss the others in the safe for the heck of it. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
