<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rlm&#039;s cents, post: 311644, member: 7957&quot;]Assuming that &quot;value&quot; means what it would sell for on eBay/Teletrade/Heritage, the value definitely increases.&nbsp; Neither Teletrade nor Heritage will sell raw coins.&nbsp; Therefore, their &quot;value&quot; is $0.&nbsp; On eBay, I and many others will only bid as much as I trust the sell, description, and pictures while most of the rest will not bid on eBay.&nbsp; If the description is &quot;certified by XXX&quot;, I will bid more.&nbsp; Including in-person sales would, IMO, almost equalize the values, but I still doubt that a raw coin would sell for more than the certified coin very often.</p><p><br /></p><p>Let me turn the question around.&nbsp; </p><p>Since only eBay sells raw coins and their pictures and/or sellers are questionable at best, how did you come up with $250 for a &quot;raw&quot; coin?&nbsp; It has to be based on certified coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
