That might hlep you better determine how accurate your market perspective is when it comes to toned coin selling prices. If your like most of us who will guess both high and low then you probably have at least a usable grasp on the market which will only be useful if you decide to jump in and actively buy toned coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
