The Details Discount Thread

Well, No one guessed a straight grade, so price trumps grade. It graded AU58 and I paid $315 for it. It's a super light scratch, just VERY magnified in the trueviews! Still, it would be a (even more) stunning coin without it!

Nice! I was thinking low ms so I feel good about that guess! I don't have any slabbed details coins but I have some raw details that we could just guess purchase price on?

 

Here is a coin I really enjoy.

1852 O seated dime.

It was my first seated dime. Conservatively I'd give it g/vg. The closest example on pcgs is VG 10 sold for $65. What did I pay?

Also if this doesn't count feel free to update for a new pick @ddddd.

13

 

$7

 

We'll I feel this coin doesn't have a whole lot of interest or room for guessing ha but @IBetASilverDollar got the closest. I paid $5.50 total. A cheap and great first piece!

You're up silverdollar!

 

I don't own any details coins so just scanned ebay for one. Specifically searched for old gold because it's an affordable way to own some very rare coins and I was curious what I'd find.

This one sold recently, I'll reveal it's UNC details cleaned, just looking for price it sold for. Not a lot of sales history to go off of as they only estimate 85 exist in 60 or higher but a few MS61's have sold for around $1,200 in last few years. What did this details one go for?

 

790?

 

575

 

$159

 

$500

 

I doubt it is going to sell for like half of melt value.... lol

 

Only if it sells in rural auctions that @V. Kurt Bellman frequents

 

875 on the gold

Melt. Not a penny more. Maybe a touch less for the trouble of cracking it out.
