Catalog prices on modern circulation issues actually tend to be absurdly low. Even the RedBook lists a Gem 1982-P quarter for $15 but you'll never even find a chBU on ebay for less than about $50. Give upon finding a true Gem at all since the nicest pieces aren't well struck and go into MS-67 holders that sell for $600.
It's odd how all the prices listed for old coins are way over what they really bring but prices on moderns can be a tiny fraction of true market value.

Time don't fly, it bounds and leaps.
