<p>[QUOTE="edteach, post: 25463777, member: 85141"]I did use those criteria. I looked at reputable sellers on eBay and what these have sold for and the condition. I looked on other sites like Vcoin, Heritage auctions on the for sale and sold for. The prices are not set. I.E. no in this condition in this day this will only sell for this amount. A slabbed very fine coin of this type sells for 1100 to 2k. It just depends on the auction. To find some great deal you have to spend a lot of time looking for one to fall through the cracks and you are waiting to jump in and catch it. I am sure there were some good deals to be had in Dec. of 2008 when everyone was focused on their 401k or Equities accounts, falling home price ect. You also have to consider how much time is your time worth? I don't have the time to spend all day every day going over the auctions to see where is the absolute best deal. I don't want to over spend, but there needs for me at least to be a cut off where I am looking and buying. Or it becomes work.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
