[QUOTE="Beefer518, post: 2880578, member: 87737"]I just watched a PCGS Secure MS-64 1927 Vermont (Coin A below) go for $405.00. I just bought a PCGS MS-64 1927 Vermont (Coin B) for $224.01. Now I'm well aware that (monster) toning can bring nice premiums, but the toning on coin A (IMO) is attractive at best, but certainly not monster. I wouldn't think it would warrant a premium of $180 (nearly double). So, what was it that made this coin go so high? Was it the toning, the PCGS Secure holder, a combination of both, or what? Were the difference in the seller's photos worth the added price? Not to mention that ugly black streak across the mountain lion's back.... Or did I just get a heckuva deal? Coin A ($405) [ATTACH=full]690353[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]690354[/ATTACH] Coin B [ATTACH=full]690355[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]690356[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
