madzdad71 Valued Member United States 377 Posts	Posted 03/17/2008 10:25 pm Just wondering if this is a good deal or not. I may need to use the "Honey Pleeease" eyes! http://buffalo.craigslist.org/clt/608263605.html Report this Post to the Staff

KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 03/17/2008 11:18 pm Hmm...I guess it all depends if you want it for that price I like to compare coins for sale against Heritage auction prices for a general idea. There I see a MS61BN slabbed by PCGS that sold for $2530 earlier this year. Of course, some dealers question Anacs grading against PCGS, and they typically don't sell as high. That's just what I've seen... Hmm...I overlooked that lamination comment; I'd skip too. Edited by KurtS 03/18/2008 01:33 am Report this Post to the Staff

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 03/18/2008 12:03 am I don't like the tiny images, especially the reverse. I don't like that the coin looks really nice for an MS61...what's wrong with the reverse? I don't like the term "lamination" used in the description of the coin. If it has a lamination, it's a problem coin and I wouldn't want it. Three strikes - I'll pass. Report this Post to the Staff

Jim1953 Pillar of the Community United States 2600 Posts	Posted 03/18/2008 08:52 am 71, Chuck is dead on right. Keep looking. I have been looking for one over the last yr and have not found the right coin yet. I expect to spend that type of money or more and I expect the coin to be appealing to me. The last thing I want is a coin to cost $2500 and not enjoy it when I look at it. Don't rush this type of purchase. I would also suggest that you look hard at Heritage to buy this type of coin.

foundinrolls Pillar of the Community United States 3507 Posts	Posted 03/18/2008 5:13 pm The first thing to do is a search on ebay for every 1955 DDO cent to see if you find this picture. Too many scams on Craigslist. Thanks, Bill Report this Post to the Staff
