<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NotSure, post: 790331, member: 20034&quot;]Tonite was a busy night for high grade, tougher date, PCGS attributed Type B Washies (as well as a &#039;64-D Type C).&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>On Ebay, ending at 9pm ET, an attributed 1962 Type B PCGS MS65 (11 in grade, with 2 better, total population in ALL grades is 48) ended up at $210, which, in my opinion, is a pretty good price (strong, considering what they were commanding less than a year ago, and at the same time, a good price for the buyer, given the pops).&nbsp; Also of note on ebay, there was&nbsp; a 1957 attributed PCGS Type B MS65 (41 in grade, 38 higher, total population 138), that fetched $60.99....not bad considering there are 38 graded higher, and it&#039;s one of the more common dates.&nbsp; There were a few other lower grade (MS64) Type B&#039;s that sold.&nbsp; Expect lower graded coins to move up slowly/eventually (by lower grade, I mean lower MS...I don&#039;t anticipate circulated examples will be &#039;gangbusters&#039;....at least not in my lifetime).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Over on Teletrade, ending at 10pm ET, there was a 1961 Type B PCGS MS65 (15 in grade, with 2 better, total population 56).&nbsp; This coin was bid up to $190, yet after all was said and done, didn&#039;t sell (the owner must have wanted to see ALL the money, as PCGS lists the coin at $250...and while the coin is worth all the money, I think the seller would have made alot on it, considering an attributed 1961 Type B PCGS MS65 sold on ebay in the last 8 months or so, for $40!).&nbsp; Though, there was another 1961 attributed PCGS Type B MS65 that was on Heritage a few nights ago.&nbsp; Apparently, people were asleep at the wheel, as that one was literally STOLEN for about $85, including the juice (if I wasn&#039;t one of those asleep at the wheel, it NEVER would have gone for that cheap).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>There was also an attributed PCGS 1964-D Type C MS63 (6 in grade, 10 finer, total pop in all grades is 23...a TOUGH coin).&nbsp; This coin was presented for the 3rd time on TT in the last month and a half-2 months.&nbsp; It has been bid up to $400 in the past....getting bid to $360 tonight (ultimately, not selling due to seller reserve/buyback).&nbsp; This coin, while extremely tough, is currently not going to bring THAT kind of money (in the future, more than likely, but the seller is looking for MS64 money...the last 64-D Type C PCGS MS64 on TT was in April &#039;09 (just 9 months ago), and that coin sold for $275.&nbsp; ( short months later, that coin was sold for $450...not a bad return for 9 months of patience.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Now that NGC is going to attribute these Type B&#039;s, there should be a nice price movement (there already was a good price movement before the NGC announcement).&nbsp; Unfortunately for NGC, where they got in the game so late, most of these that WERE in NGC slabs (the higher grade examples) were submitted to PCGS for the attribution, as even though the markers are plain to see with the naked eye, if the label didn&#039;t show the attribution, highest prices just couldn&#039;t be realized by these Type B&#039;s in NGC slabs.&nbsp; Even unattributed examples in PCGS slabs don&#039;t realize the same prices as an attributed label would (though this is starting to change in the cases of PCGS coins that aren&#039;t attributed).&nbsp; The examples remaining in NGC slabs has to be minimal, at best, and except the ocassional high grade, COMMON date, the majority left must be in lower grade slabs.....not making it fiscally smart to spend the money to get them attributed (this could/should change though).&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Now, besides all my PCGS (both attributed and unattributed) Type B&#039;s, those in ANACS slabs (only have the tougher dates in ANACS.....1956, 1961, 1962), and all my raw examples (only gem BU raw examples.....also, I used only gem BU Type B&#039;s for &#039;56-&#039;64 &#039;P&#039; mint coins for my Dansco), I&#039;ll have to find the few dates left in old, unattributed NGC slabs to complete THAT run of Type B&#039;s.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
