The premium logically is dependent on the coin grade, date, attributes, certifier, etc..</b></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>A general rule of thumb for generic &quot;common date&quot; coins is that the premium when purchased in a competitive venue is approximately slightly less than the cost required to have that &quot;raw&quot; coin certified/slabbed. The general premium when purchased from a dealer is relatively greater, as they will often use various unrealistic resources/documents (e.g. PCGS &quot;price guide&quot;) to justify an appreciable premium above C.D.N. &quot;Grey Sheet&quot; which is normally used for acquisition.</b></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>Regardless of what dealers tell you when buying your coins, they aren&#039;t selling using the same appraisal standard. Astute buyers recognize the &quot;game&quot;, and generally purchase in venues having competitive &quot;premiums&quot;.</b></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>JMHO, based on significant experience. </b>:thumb:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
