<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 1562013, member: 15199"]PCGS does attribute the Top 100, 50, 40 lists on VAM World, but they do not do so by rarity alone. The extent of the varietal difference weighs more on the market pricing than only rarity. Many of the VAMs on the above lists are not as rare, but, the difference can usually be seen with the eye or minimal magnification. It was easy for me to find many 1955/55`die-1 cents, but harder to find die-2, or even die-3, because they weren't nearly as visible, and only the Diehards were looking for them. But the desirability for the Die-1 was so great, the others were priced much lower than they deserved if the Die -1 hadn't existed. I can tell you the market price for Die 1, but I wouldn't even know where to find a reasonable pricing for Die-2,Die -3, and probably HA wouldn't venture a guess either. Usually in most auctions you can put a reserve on it, but you would still be responsible for your fees, but at least it wouldn't sell for less than you wanted. I think you would be best served by getting ANACs to slab it and then write up an excellent history for selling on eBay with your reserve, IMO,</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
