<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 484212, member: 15309&quot;]Most people here know that I rarely even consult price guides other than to obtain a multiplier.&nbsp; The reason for listing the price guides was so that I could get an honest response from the forum members.&nbsp; Without them, everyone would simply search Heritage&#039;s archives and find the exact price that the coin sold for.&nbsp; I knew what the sale price was.&nbsp; This was an attempt to find out how much others who did not participate in the auction might be willing to pay.</p><p><br /></p><p>It is extraordinarily rare for a rainbow toned coins (even coppers) to sell without any premium.&nbsp; In this case, without a premium to past prices realized.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have become very good at viewing Heritage photos that do not flatter rainbow toned coins and picking coins that will have exceptional eye appeal.&nbsp; My guess is that this coin will be much more attractive in hand.&nbsp; I don&#039;t have real good success at photographing toned copper coins but I will post a phtoo when the coin arrives so that we can compare.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
