[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 3001609, member: 10461"]Hmm. I could be out of my league here. I knew this coin was worth a whole lot more than my initial test bid, but didn't realize how many of them cross the four-figure frontier, pricewise (which is well beyond my means). This one went for $850 last month. (Also beyond my means.)
