<p>[QUOTE=&quot;IdesOfMarch01, post: 7876825, member: 39084&quot;]For a slightly different perspective on the apparent $25K acceptable offer for this coin, I would point out that the all-in-price for this coin in the Triton auction, after buyer&#039;s fee and shipping, would be about $19,500.&nbsp; So the $25K price is about a 28% retail markup, which I personally would consider an acceptable percentage from a retail dealer IF this were a coin in which I was interested.</p><p><br /></p><p>In my mind, the key issues would be (1) is this a coin that I really want in my collection, and (2) does the $25K asking price represent an acceptable market value for this coin at this time?</p><p><br /></p><p>Another way to look at this coin is, did the purchaser in the Triton XXIV auction get a minor bargain at $19.5 all-in, or did he/she pay an effectively retail price?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I can&#039;t answer any of these questions myself, but I do think that while the $50K eBay price is patently ridiculous, a $25K price may be worth a second thought.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
