<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John D (Bud) Williams, post: 1885168, member: 67853&quot;]Guys, you may or may not have read my &#039;lesson&#039; in discovering whizzed coins. I will post the picture below. I bought the coin for 330; I bought it as a &#039;cleaned coin&#039;, it turned out to be whizzed. I immediately posted the coin on EBay and it sold last night for 261. I still can&#039;t believe it! I even cancelled a bid for a guy that didn&#039;t see my several comments about it and close up pictures describing the coin. I expected 100 bucks.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I said all that to say, final analysis seems to still point to the &#039;eye of the beholder&#039; rules. I couldn&#039;t agree more that a pure untouched coin is far more valuable than a cleaned one and certainly more valuable than a whizzed or damaged etc coin. But the market as I see it still seems to generally ignore TPGs details designation in the case of a &#039;cleaned&#039; problem coin. It won&#039;t sell for the same price as a non-details coin but will still sell and demand close to AU+ money if uncirculated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
