I have been looking on the Heritage Auctions site at the most recent auctions and I can't believe the prices that they are getting for, tooled, filed rims, altered surface and heat damage seated dollars (all TPGed). And none are raw coins. Looks like most sell for more than Gray Sheet ask price except for the lower grades. The 17.5% Buyer Premium kills it for folks like me.</p><p><br /></p><p>I use to go to Steve Ivy Auctions in Dallas and do mail bid on Bowers and Ruddy Auctions before they started this Buyers Premium crap.
