That&#039;s why the price for the most part is less for the 1907&#039;s -- but go to MS-65/66/67 on the 1907&#039;s and the price jumps a ton.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p><p>Will you please post your authoritative source for your statement &quot;There are simply many more of the 1907 HR than some of the rare mintages and condition rarities&quot;?</p><p>I&#039;ve unsuccessfully searched for a reliable document which indicates/states the known remaining quantities of the coins I referenced for you to compare in the St. Gaudens series.</p><p><br /></p><p>Does your source also include the remaining quantities of the 1909P St. Gaudens which might explain the 750% PCGS stated increase in value for that coin in MS65 grade condition relative to the MS63 grade?

I have one who just returned from a major show with five PCGS incuse indians I desired. I&#039;ll trade for a 1911 &quot;Mint State&quot; St. Gaudens.</p><p><br /></p><p>JMHO[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
