[QUOTE="WingedLiberty, post: 1737369, member: 26030"]Yes, that's way too high a price. You can find these on eBay for sometimes as low as $10 to $30 (for raw coins especially), but certainly less than $85 or so (especially for the already graded examples). Here are my purchase prices for the Jefferson's above ... all were bought on eBay (except for the 1963, which was a gift coin from robec) ... 1959 = $75.00 (in mint cello) 1960 = $85.00 (already PCGS graded) 1961 = $25.00 (raw) 1962 = $20.50 (in mint cello) 1963 = free (raw) 1964 = $12.00 (raw) Avg Cost = $36.25 each The best bargain of the bunch (I suppose) was the 1964 which I bought for a song, has some crazy great and unusual color, and graded out with a monster PR67 grade. But certainly you can't beat free on the 1963, which has as deep and intense a blue color as I think I've ever seen on a PCGS-graded Nickel. So it is possible to have some fun in numismatics without spending a whole lot.[/QUOTE]
