    There are a few pedigrees that do command a premium. Battle Creek, Great Falls, Binion, Redfield are a few. I don't necessarily agree with it, but some of them do have great stories while others also contain exceptional coins (so while there may be a premium for just the pedigree, the pedigree itself may be associated with quality coins).

    Anyways, @Santinidollar you were closest as this one sold for $385. It seems I could have made more, but I received a message from the under-bidder about a week after I listed the coin with an offer that let me make a profit and provide them with a coin that they wanted more than I did.

    I've been following this thread from the beginning just watching and trying to learn, but I have a toner I bought back in 2009 or 2010 that I've been really wanting to post. Hopefully it's ok if I throw sething in here. What did I pay for it? It's ms67 fb and pcgs price guide lists it at $155.

    This one's a nice curve ball being ICG when you bought it 7 or 8 years ago.

    Come on man, that information is going to change our guess. The way you presented it was that you bought it as a PCGS MS67FB.

    I'm changing my guess to $100
