Message:: [QUOTE="Kristine Garrant, post: 8205717, member: 124772"]great information!  i guess this is something that is going to take time for me.  I was told by a guy, Blue Ridge Silver Hound i think, on YouTube that there are modern coins with NO errors in great condition that have sold for high dollars.  Just because some collector wanted their collection to contain the "pretty shiny ones" and even at a newer year there were hardly any certified at high grades..  He said to check population reports.  If a certain coin's highest (i.e pcgs) grade is a 68 and there is only a few and the next highest is a 64 with only a few recorded, then his take on it was a grade of 65 or 66 would still command decent cash.  So I went to pcgs and there are only 2 at 68 and i think that's 180 at grade 67and 6 at 67+.  So I would have to have to have a 67+ or above grade for it to be worth anything?  and because the price guide says, if i am getting this right, $22 was the going price or what it was sold for?  Cause then I see that one on Ebay went for several thousand, Is this just a buyer who was not smart and maybe duped?  i just find the differences in price wildly confusing.  that's why i picked this 2015 P to get opinions on.  I am trying to understand how the value comes into play when estimating for a sale.  And the 499 coins that have been graded by pcgs are you saying that all 499 wasted their money on such a new year coin? thanks for your time![/QUOTE]
