<p>[QUOTE="Kerry67, post: 135246, member: 5747"]I understand that something is only worth what someone will pay. I buy and sell classic cars and parts and I realize that books are to give you a close price range (hopefully). Take in account that someone bought a 69 Z-28 a couple years ago at auction for 130 thousand dollars. By the book it is a 40 thousand dollar car at the time. But, he had the money and wanted to prove he had money. Two years later he sold the car at the same auction for 60 thousand in the same condition. So, what is the car really worth ?? I think it is up to the individual. If they bought it and are happy with it, than that is what is worth.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also realize that I am a new coin collector and don't know squat about it yet but, by my eye and with the help of the books that were recommended to me, that is how I see my coin. I am sure I am way off though, but I bet it is worth more than the 30 bucks I paid for it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for the reply.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
