<p>[QUOTE=&quot;silverspoonvint, post: 1434801, member: 37921&quot;]Took this coin to the recent major PNNA show here near Seattle. Wanted to see if I could get something close to an MS66 bid given the extremely choice toning, near 66 qualities and the coveted star. </p><p><br /></p><p>First off, the vast majority of dealers were highly complimentary of the coin, just didn&#039;t want to be &#039;buried in a common date&#039;. I accept that, 79 Philly isn&#039;t exactly a showstopper. A few insisted a retry with PCGS as the coin is truly on the verge of that grade, if not there. </p><p><br /></p><p>One gentleman was nuts though. He immediately told me it was a &quot;decent MS64 with marginal toning&quot; and of course PCGS would never grade it that way. He thought an ms64 offer was more than generous. </p><p><br /></p><p>Why do people act like this? All this guy sold was toned coins and many weren&#039;t nearly this quality but priced at least 2x dealer bid price on almost all occasions. up to 10x bid on MS63 commons. Why not just be honest and say it&#039;s not for you rather than try and be a cheesy car dealer?</p><p><br /></p><p>BTW... I understand sales and negotiation. I buy land rights for a living.</p><p>[ATTACH]175745.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]175740.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]175742.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]175743.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]175744.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
