[QUOTE="kanga, post: 4582611, member: 9270"]1. I start by determining how much a non-Details coin would sell for. And if the slab says AU-Details I price an AU-50. 2. Then I cut that price in half. 3. Then I modify that half price according to the type of damage. -- Cleaned - If I can't see it (often with dipped coins) I stick to the 50% -- Cleaned - If I can see it (such as abrasively cleaned) I subtract some amount from the 50% price -- Other damage - All depends on the type of damage and its appearance. 3a. Factored into this price determination is how much I want the coin. If it's particularly desirable to me I may [B]add[/B] to the 50%. 4. When I arrive at a price I can live with AND if it's an auction, I then subtract 20% for the buyer's fee and S&H. The important part is once you've determined a price you're will to pay, [U]stick with it[/U]. I own a number of Details coins. One is a R-5+ which is a hole-filler. One is a high value coin (5-figures if not damaged) that I will live with. There's a bunch that are raw that belong to a die marriage set of 120+ coins; I have about 75 of them. This is a set that I toy with.[/QUOTE]
