ebay sellers really play up the "key date" thing on these '73 Ag Proof Ikes. Sheesh. (Yeah I probably would too but I'm on the other side so I feel justified in complaining.  ) Is upwards of $30 really what I can expect to pay?

Wow, it seems like it. However, I think the price should be closer to $20 for most specimens. For $30 it needs to be a 67 DCAM or better.

It could also remove the coin's value in no time.

MS70? No way. Not if diluted and done properly! Never have I had a coin denied or detailed by NGC from using MS70.

Nice looking coins. If put up on ebay, should sell well.

That may be fine for you, but not the hundreds of other people casually reading these threads, who walk away thinking they now know all they need to know. It is a fact that a novice can ruin a coin in the same amount of time you take to fix it. https://goccf.com/t/118885

I made the rounds to a couple coin shops today. Picked up a roll of Ike's. I also asked one shop, if they had any 73S silver proofs. They did. And they checked greysheet, and said they were $30. I do think they can be bought between $20 and $30. I bought this roll (22 coins) because one of the coins, 1977S clad proof, has very nice looking color. The problem is I had no luck getting it to show up on a picture.

I might have to try buying a new lens.
That Ike has a lot of blue ...
$35.00 for the roll ... Does have two silver proofs.

That's a pretty stack of Ikes, GR58.
Thanks everyone for the input. Guess I'll bite the bullet and finish up my album.

Quote: Do it! Can you really put a price on a completed album? Technically I suppose so, but I get your meaning.  And.... I did it! Went to my LCS an hour ago and picked up the 73 Ag Proof for $26. No OGP but that's fine, since I'm going to stick it in my album anyway. Also picked up a used but pristine Ike Dansco for $10. The one I was using was also used, but kinda beat up. Tonight I'll be transferring coins to the better, like-new album and will get some pics up!
