<p>[QUOTE="JCB1983, post: 1355114, member: 23885"]I do not know. I only see the results of the eBay completed listings. I do not expect a professional such as yourself to accept a feeling as factual evidence. Likewise if we spilled 1,000 coins on a table, I do not believe that it would be possible to get a more accurate grade than you came up with on a single one. Economics is my major. It is not only my major it is a complete obsession. It would be nice to produce an objective market report on slabbed (toned) 50-300 dollar Franklins in the near future. In the meantime I suppose were speaking "simple hueristics" here. When I make my daily scans, click buy-now, and refresh my page every 15-20 minutes I will often see these coins dissapear in that alloted amount of time. We are talking about a small number of top rated sellers that are providing high quality mostly PCGS slabbed Franklins here. I am assuming that the buyers are also a small subset. This does not mean that general demand for franklins is up. Furthermore these sellers are smart. They are releasing their gems based upon what people are paying. Now that people are climbing out of the 75 dollar range for a typical MS-64/65 slabbed toner, than they are putting more on the market. On top of this, people are still paying the higher premium even with the supply increasing. This to me is evidence of a price increase. It could very well be that I am talking about a Franklin subset, and you are refering to high end (rare) Frankies, or Franklins in general.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
