<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kasia, post: 3457317, member: 31533&quot;]Another though on correlation in this, perhaps that makes a better way to evaluate a coin that is exceptional for pricing once you get into the huge price jump area between grades... look at the population reports for the highest grade value you might use (in this case I used the MS66 &#039;value&#039;). Both PCGS and NGC have their populations of MS66 coins at 1092 and 1131, respectively, and MS67 having only 95 and 46, with none higher than MS67. This out of a total pop of 126,235 and 142,967. Basically looking at pop reports plus using MS66 as the grade to place the value in somewhere above it (I used PCGS&#039;s 400.00), one might decide to use the total population in that grade to figure value.... and in this case, the total population gives, perhaps a way to put a top dollar on it... basically no more or not much more than the total population in the grade you use. Of course this would not be useful if the pops in MS66 were either substantially larger or smaller than they are. But throwing pops in as a way to perhaps gauge how much higher to go is an idea. </p><p><br /></p><p>I guess all I&#039;m saying is that I, as a non-collector of Morgans as a focal point, think that this came in at a price point for a coin three but not 4 points higher just due to the nice color. But with a wide gap to the 4th price point ($3600 more than the 3rd) being so large, it is difficult to know where to place it&#039;s value. And perhaps looking at populations in addition to &#039;prices&#039; needs to really be a consideration. Perhaps if the MS66 pops were much lower then this could have gone for more and if the pops were doubled it may then have gone for much less. </p><p><br /></p><p>Just thoughts.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
