[QUOTE="EyeEatWheaties, post: 1047180, member: 26972"]Truth! all the numbers quoted from Heritage and Teletrade in this thread are likely not reflecting the real price the BUYER paid. add what? 30% to the numbers? whereas on eBay you can get tons of past results that more accurate of what something is realistically worth because the eBay market is exponentially larger than all the other coin markets put together? Those niche markets that certain coin businesses have clients for should only slightly affect the overall values determined by the volume coin businesses (eBay). The price guides maintained by PCGS, NGC and BFD are great to use as bench marks. I use them exclusively, knowing full well that slabbed coins can easily be had for 50% of the posted values and that raw coins can go for full value! Given that I only shop Lincolns, the above is fact![/QUOTE]
