cpm9ball cpm9ball At this point, I feel I should interject something of little importance in the midst of this very educational Q&A.

crypto79 crypto79 If I just sell the car, I can up my bid... Registered: 11/23/10 Posts: 180	I wonder if there is a correlation between NGC's market perception and the prices realized? It appears to me that a 2012 NGC62 garners less respect that a 2007 MS61 esp considering that the market has been tracking up since then too. This coincides with my overall impression that NGC has been tracking down and the American coin market is becoming a one horse show where Darkside is still an open TPG market. _________________________ The "CC" Collection of Trade$s Updated 08/12

WoodenJefferson WoodenJefferson I have nothing to add or subtract, I am merely here. TOTAL NEWBIE Registered: 12/08/06 Posts: 12952 Loc: In the minds of many	Mr. Jones and it will hence forth always be Mr. now, I took a stroll over to NumisMedia for a peek see at the valuation of this early minted coin and it said, I quote, "IF YOU HAVE TO ASK, YOU CANNOT AFFORD THIS COIN!" Enjoy this addition to your type set and be very, very proud of this accomplishment. _________________________ A good collector learns something new everyday.

robec1347 robec1347 I was posting here when you were in diapers. Registered: 08/09/06 Posts: 3905 Loc: Central California	Crazy good pickup. I think "pickup" is not the right term for a coin like that, but for lack of a better term. Just an incredible coin and achievement. If your wife does divorce you, I can be available. _________________________ __ Bob __ MPLs - Lincolns of Color Robecs Images
