<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 3288569, member: 19463"]Someone correct me if I am wrong: All I have seen strike me as rather close to the same period and of similar style. I don't see this having any effect on transitionals and certainly not Archaics. The dealers I have seen offering them have boasted that they selected the best of the best and were asking high prices. The question I have is just how bad coin number 20,000 is and whether it will be a bargain price. Many I saw at the shows I attended were $1500-2000 and probably worth it with the worst being better than most. Will this improve what you can get for $500-1000? Is there a market for so many expensive owls when most collectors would only want one of them because they are so similar? I saw a collector agonizing over a purchase between two coins so identical that neither was nicer. We are accustomed to seeing multiples of US MS66 but the picky among owl lovers has more choices now.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
