<p>[QUOTE="coinage86, post: 220714, member: 7584"]You got good money for it on ebay, but the $160 was possibly a fair price. The dealer that offered $160 miay have graded it lower than VG-8. People on ebay get caught up in the bidding and over-pay. On ebay, you have the whole world looking at it, and some people will pay any price to get the 1921 spot in their whitman album filled. BUT the majority of people on this website have said many times, the prices on ebay are not realistic of the coin market as it exists at the coin shows. On ebay you have idiots bidding up based on prices they see in the books and the PCGs price guides. The books I was told are published a year in advance. the PCGS prices are over-inflated prices. These things influence inexperienced and unknowledgable ebay bidders. Your auction price that you got of $566 is not reflective of anything other than you were lucky. I bought a 1894 $10 gold piece on ebay. I was happy with what I paid. These guys on cointalk said I overpaid. Ebay is not the benchmark for judging fair coin prices. you got lucky!!!! Is anybody going to contradict me? Because Im repeating what you people on cointalk have told me!!!!!!!!!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
