<p>[QUOTE="PaulTudor, post: 3985684, member: 103058"]I haven't researched your coin, if it's a 3 taler the story is different!Selling problem talers is not an issue!Most of european auction houses, as i'm sure you know, sell a ton of problem talers and for good prices!Not everyone can afford MS pieces so most have to fight for what's left and there is always demand. On ebay for example there's at least two dealers that i know that sell talers with various issues for more than i would have imagined!I've also noticed that 2 talers and high graders/rare ones , do not hit the real value or, let's say the auction house price !Last year i managed to sell a 1.5 taler and barely made 50£ on it, which blew my mind, but that's ebay in this case.Now when it comes to single talers/large coins that i've sold last year on ebay, i'll give you 4 examples:1710 hall taler,VF,obv. brooch mark, bought for 100£-sold for 250£/1707 hall taler, EF,tooled and polished,bought for 167£-sold for 295£, 1666 ducaton, VF,some corrosion on it,bought for 150£-sold for 350£, 1779 Nurnberg taler, EF,rev. brooch marks, bought for 112£- sold for 173£ though i previously received a 200£ offer and said no!The list could go on a little more, but the idea is that, although i'm at a low level my sellings reflect whether i'm doing things right or i'm clueless so i kind of need this reality check!You can check my coins posted on here and if you are curious about any i can state the price and why i thought that it was a very good deal or at least a decent one![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
