[QUOTE="World Colonial, post: 2492432, member: 78153"]True, but "deep pockets" is relative. Like others here, I could spend more if I chose to do so but I do not because I have more important uses for my money. To give you one example, in another topic, I mentioned the Rudman 1732 Mexico NGC AU-58 pillar 4R w/out assayer. This coin sold for about $27k, a pitifully low price for its significance and scarcity, especially when compared to equivalent US coins. Among US half dollars (which are the same size), I'd only rate the 1861 CSA and 1792 colonial Washington (Baker 24a) above it. There is one better of the five known for this variety and 10 or so of both varieties; the ex-Norweb coin. I had no idea it would sell for this price, though it was within the estimate.
