<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 3074999, member: 27832&quot;]I was looking through completed listings for an eBay seller just now. He has some Peace dollar lots that worked out to about $15/coin before shipping, and that was enough to make me check his history.</p><p><br /></p><p>He&#039;s sold a fair amount of ordinary stuff at ordinary prices -- Whitman albums of circulated silver with no keys, circulated Morgans, etc. But I also noticed this:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/Standing-Liberty-Quarters-Partial-Set-1917-1930-31-Coins-Circulated/123049280740" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/Standing-Liberty-Quarters-Partial-Set-1917-1930-31-Coins-Circulated/123049280740" rel="nofollow">Standing Liberty Quarters – Partial Set 1917-1930, 31 Coins, Circulated</a></p><p><br /></p><p>$300 BIN for 31 SLQs? Yawn. And apparently other BIN-campers felt the same, because it went up Thursday March 29 at 5:10 PM PDT, and didn&#039;t sell until after 9AM PDT the next day.</p><p><br /></p><p>But take a look at this photo:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]773315[/ATTACH] </p><p>Most of these coins are in better than average shape (overlooking the obviously-polished 1920-D) -- <i>especially</i> the <b>1919-D, 1919-S, 1921, and 1923-S</b>. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>It looks to me like that&#039;s close to $1000 value in <i>just those four coins</i>, and there are <i>plenty</i> of others that are worth more than the $10/each that this worked out to. If I&#039;d seen this listing when it appeared, I would&#039;ve pounced instantly.</p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, well, back to watching the new BINs for a bit. All it&#039;s been so far this morning is garbage at good-stuff prices and good stuff at retail+++ prices, but you&#039;ll never see the bargains if you don&#039;t look at the right moment...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
