[QUOTE="ddddd, post: 25341504, member: 22377"]I have a few examples to share (and could come up with more if I tried but won't at this time :p). First is this Morgan that I know I won't recoup my cost as I've had no luck selling it at a loss. I was swayed by the colors on the top half plus convinced that I was getting a deal by winning the auction at over $100 less than its previous appearance. Unfortunately the bottom portion of the coin is less appealing and despite the market on toners increasing, I was the only one who valued it anywhere close to where it sold for.

Here the colors are great throughout and the luster is solid as well. I paid around 10x of a typical AU 58 but it was worth it. [ATTACH=full]1620768[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1620769[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
