<p>[QUOTE="Morgandude11, post: 2243054, member: 37839"]Agreed. However price guide is not often auction reality in situations such as these. Supply and demand often dictate the market on specialized coins such as mentioned. DMPLs in higher grades that are not ugly with bag marks or battleship gray toning are scarce, as you pointed out. DMPLs are a rare occurrence comparatively with any coin, and fortunately they're still affordable in common date Morgans. However, in my above example, both would be very unaffordable: The 1893s in MS 65 is insanely expensive--auctions often go way over price guide for an ATTRACTIVE example of that date. The 1889cc DMPL is also not common enough for auctions to generate a lot of interest for an attractive example in MS 64 for that date. Which one would I rather have? I think the 93s, as a key coin like that (assuming that it was very attractive) has a degree of exclusivity.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
