Here's the CAC Population/Price reporting on these two coins: [ATTACH=full]1547300[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1547301[/ATTACH] Interesting how the price relationship changes position between MS-61 and 62. But for the MS-61s, the pricing is in line with your reported Heritage auction results. So, on the surface, it looks like there's something else going on than just survivor/availability issues. For CAC issues, there aren't very many coins out there of this type so for date/mm collectors of CAC coins, this would be a pretty thinly collected issue. There is also the marquee name issue that could have played a part. Sometimes, the pop reports do not indicate the true rarity of an issue as it is determined by a sophisticated collector community.
