<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1019466, member: 66"]The website is showing RETAIL prices for a little better grade coins, and for the common dates what you are really seeing is not the value of the coin but a dealer minimum markup value. You have to understand that usually it is not worth a dealers time or money to package up a coin in an individual holder if it is worth less than 25 to 50 cents. You take a wheat you buy for 3 cents, put it in a 2X2 that cost you 3 cents, and that the time to write up the identification on the holder and enter it into inventory, if you sell it for a dime you make maybe 1 cent on the deal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
