Legends, and Platinum Nights, and other superlative auction sales are a completely different marketplace from anything a typical collector will play in. Different galaxy.

 

I think Kurt is just basking in the Amish Moonshine. He'll come to his senses soon enough once his Rumspringa is over

 

Colorful toning in general is a completely different marketplace than most collectors could afford to play in.

 

Yes, you're right of course. Toner collectors are a cult.

 

It's been 24 hrs+, and this thread is getting a little off topic, so...

@brg5658 and his WAG 'wins'. I paid $180 for all three. I like @Pickin and Grinin 's guess on future sale.

Your turn brg5658

 

I'll claim half a victory for saying $175
And award both @brg5658 and myself 1 point....but remember the points don't matter!

Wow that is a lot of b's

Anyways you are next @brg5658

 

There's more d's than b's.... just sayin'

 

That's why I had to give myself a point.

 

I have a set of newly acquired coins that I am thinking out having conserved, at the ANA this August. Should I Go ANACS, NGC or PCGS?

 

OK, here it goes. I'm moving to a non-USA coin.

I purchased this coin a couple years ago. It is in a PCGS old green holder, graded MS65 sometime between Jan 1990 and mid-1995. Auction results for PCGS MS65 examples without toning are around $150, and the Krause guide price in "MS60" (no price given in higher grade) is $125. One of my favorite toned coins in my collection.

 

Beautiful colors on both sides. This coin certainly has the "wow" factor. The OGH is an added bonus. Being a world coin likely limits the premium (compared to say a Morgan), but toned collectors would still bid strong on that example.

I will go with $275.

 

I'm going to say a steal at $200, just based on the relative weakness of the market for toned world coins.

 

I have no idea actually, but ill go $201

 

This is a complete WAG. I am going to go low this time thinking you got is a while back before the world market was getting much attention and I'll guess $85 for that reason

 

My SWAG is $100 purchased at the time, and would sell for $295.

 

Since it is the weekend and we have not had too many guesses, the coin posted by @brg5658 can be extended until tomorrow. It is a nice one, let's see some more comments!

 

It's a world coin. Most have very limited knowledge of world let alone world toner premiums (if any) so most all responses will just be a edited in the dark.

 

A what?

 

A shot in the dark. Don't know why that was edited unless maybe if I hit "i" instead of "o" on the phone keyboard.
