<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 3097202, member: 19463"]We all make decisions on condition that modern collectors have trouble understanding. How much do you allow for wear, for strike, for style, for surfaces? Are all EF coins better than all VF coins? Would you rather have evenly textured surfaces or a few disturbed places in the fields? Is being barbarous a fault or a bonus? The three coins below were $25, $45 and $50 but I'm not saying which is which and which is worth more or less in my mind. Not all would agree. Many would say they would never own any such coin so you might prefer to ask what price you would put on each if you wanted to unload it. Do we make such decisions from our own feelings or do we listen to the auction house estimates? </p><p>[ATTACH=full]783005[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]783006[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]783008[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
