<p>[QUOTE=&quot;imrich, post: 2049747, member: 22331&quot;]I apologize if my explanation, although believed concise, was confusing.</p><p><br /></p><p>1. 3 classic Gold coins were purchased in a 45 minute period.</p><p>2. They were all &quot;better date&quot; (premium versus &quot;common&quot;) of the same &quot;type&quot; and grade.</p><p>3. 2 of the coins were virtually identical in grade, date, mint-mark.</p><p>4. The 3rd coin was a more scarce date than the other 2, commanding a significantly greater premium.</p><p>5.
