<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WingedLiberty, post: 2280116, member: 26030&quot;]The 1928 does stand out.&nbsp; I actually bought this for $90 from CT Member MonsterCoinz. At the time it was in a PCGS Genuine-QC slab. However I loved the way it looked and thought it might grade if I cracked it out and resubmitted it.&nbsp; And it came back MS65RB.&nbsp; The Guide price at that grade level is exactly $90.&nbsp; So for this coin I paid no premium for it (unless you consider regrading costs).</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://mindstar.com/cointalk_photos/TVBlack_1928_Linc_MS65RB.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>A number of these coins I bought on the cheap though.&nbsp; Many were raw coins on eBay.&nbsp; Included in these raw pickups was that monster 1934.&nbsp; This neon toned 1934, I bought in May for $65 and it graded MS65RB.&nbsp; Guide price on this one is $25.&nbsp; So this went for about 2.2x Guide.&nbsp; However the value of this is all about the color -- and at $65 it was a pretty big bargain (IMHO).</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://mindstar.com/cointalk_photos/TVBlack_1934_Linc_NeonNew.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Now a few of these coins I did pay more of a premium for.&nbsp; Generally those were ones with great color that were already slabbed by PCGS. For example the 1945-D, which was already PCGS slabbed at MS65RB and green CAC stickered -- and I paid $203 for that on Heritage.&nbsp; Guide price is $10, so for the 1945-D I paid about 20x.</p><p><br /></p><p>But I think in general -- in sum total for the entire set -- I was probably right around PCGS Guide Price, which is a pretty good bargain for all that eye appeal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
