seal006 Pillar of the Community United States 1915 Posts	Posted 07/27/2011 3:07 pm Thanks. Now pondering on selling or keeping. I sure wish there was more info on pricing these things. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 07/27/2011 8:06 pm seal006, If you end up selling yours please let me know how much you got for it and where you sold it. I would appreciate it very much. Thanks a bunch, John1 Report this Post to the Staff
seal006 Pillar of the Community United States 1915 Posts	Posted 07/27/2011 9:22 pm Though I am not sure mine would grade higher than VF, I may send it in. It might make it easier to sell that way as well. I will let ya know John. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 07/28/2011 06:24 am seal006, Not to rain on your parade but do you think it is worth the TPG fee because of the low condition? I mean if you pay $35 or more to have it slabbed and the coin may be worth $50 in a VF grade is it worth it to "you" to have it TPGed. I hope I haven't offended you in any way with this post, just don't want you to waste money on slabbing fees. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
seal006 Pillar of the Community United States 1915 Posts	Posted 07/28/2011 06:37 am I feel that if I send it in, and it comes back as merely VF, and I find out all I can ask for it is $50, I will keep it. I have been known to undergrade more than overgrade. Besides we still have not found a solid source for pricing these things. Edited by seal006 07/28/2011 06:38 am Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 07/28/2011 06:40 am Good to here. It seems that your fine with it either way it goes. Please keep me informed. Thanks much, John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Maineman750 Pillar of the Community United States 3592 Posts	Posted 07/28/2011 06:46 am You'll not find a good source on pricing because they are pretty rare and there just aren't many being sold.I know two serious collectors of these but you'll need the die pair to get any seroius offers from them as they are working on a set by die pair.The plating issues I see may be a problem in that respect.

seal006 Pillar of the Community United States 1915 Posts	Posted 07/28/2011 06:53 am Judging from the CONECA listings I believe it to be 006.2 because the mint mark is slightly to the right. As to the stage on the reverse, I am guessing EMDS to MDS. Report this Post to the Staff
Maineman750 Pillar of the Community United States 3592 Posts	Posted 07/28/2011 07:02 am seal006, if you are interested, I can contact my friend and see if he needs that one....PM me Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 07/28/2011 07:36 am I believe mine to be 006.2 as well. Can anyone tell for sure going by my posted photo? Maineman750,Can your friend give us an idea of values on these,it sure would be nice to know. seal006, Do you mind if I contact Maineman750 as well? Thanks, John1 EDIT: I just compared mine to seal006 and they are different. Seal006's the D is more centered on the 8's and on mine the D is more to the right.

Maineman750 Pillar of the Community United States 3592 Posts	Posted 07/28/2011 08:32 am John1, I just checked and he needs Wexlers listings : WTRD-001, WTRD-007, WTRD-008. Wexler's has a great page on the RDV-006's and shows all the markers for each die pair. Look under transitional listings,then at the bottom of that page you can go specifically to 1988-D and the die pairings. I will tell you my friend is more than fair in his offers and has traded me slabbed coins for raw in the 1988-P RDV-006.He does require that the coins be attributed by Wexler's or Coneca but may sway his thinking if you have good pics of the markers.You can PM me any time.
