Message:: [QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1774807, member: 112"]The most recent example I can find, in the lowest MS grade I can find, MS62, sold for $184.  The most recent example I can find in MS62 sold for $282. The most recent problem examples I can find, 1 sold for $126 (harshly cleaned), and the other sold for $31 (scratched). So obviously, the seller is asking way too much, which is why it hasn't sold. Will somebody but it eventually ? Maybe, but if they do then it will be because they did not spend the same 5 minutes it took me to find out what I found out.  Of course I only did it to answer your question. If it were me, or an educated buyer, that coin would never even be considered for purchase. It would be forgotten and ignored, as would all problem examples. What you should do is what I have told you to do several times. Look up things like this on Heritage. It's quite simple and easy, took me all of 5 minutes to do it. You can do the same. But more importantly what you should do is forget about looking at problem coins to begin with. They are not bargains, they will not save you money. This coin is a perfect example of that. This guy is asking $165 for a whizzed problem coin, and with patience you could buy a problem free MS62 example for about $20  more. Now I don't know about you, but that seems like a no brainer to me.[/QUOTE]
