<p>[QUOTE="eddiespin, post: 109051, member: 4920"]I have to be joking, right? There were over 1.2 billion of these struck in 1964. Let me tell you what says I'm not. In just the last couple of weeks, in MS67, the Philadelphia strikes went up $500 (from $3500) and the Denvers $150 (from $1750) in the PCGS Price Guide. And it was my understanding that a lot of these common dates were illegally or otherwise melted down in the 1980's when the spot price of silver hit $50/ounce. The common dates, naturally, were the first to go, and people hardly had the time nor willingness to sort through the grades while rushing to redeem. So, question, are these now the new scarce find, or is that popycock? Talking about in that top grade, now. Something's going on, just look at what a lot of these have been going for in the auctions. Opinions?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
