I don't see this VAM as carrying a premium, really. Keep in mind, there are too few true VAM specialists to support a market for all but the most desirable VAMs.

So is $245 reasonable for this coin?

No, not according to auction records. $245 buys an MS64 in a GSA holder. MS63 is $200 tops.

$245. is approx. fair market value for the 84-CC in MS63.
Very nice example for the grade.

That particular holder is a Gen. 3.5 PCGS transitional
green holder produced in 1989. These holders often carry
a small premium and are in higher demand than current holders.
These coins sometimes upgrade up a notch by today's standards.

Looks like a solid coin for the grade, I would hang on to it.

A huge quantity of real-world sales (thousands of 1884-CC's in MS63 slabs) disagree with this. A perusal of PCGS Auction Results - over 3,000 1884-CC's in MS63 slabs - indicates ebay is the only place where an MS63 1884-CC which isn't toned or Prooflike is worth over $200. That's not the case at Heritage, Stacks, Great Collections or Teletrade before them.

I agree with SuperDave that the price paid may be a little too much as I recently sold a nice one in a NGC holder MS63 on ebay for $199. I was happy to sell the coin as there were lots of 1884 cc ms63 for sale on ebay. I put the money into a 1884 cc ms64 DMLP CAC that I paid $564.

It does seem kind of high, just looking at the usual pricing sources.

I'm sorry, that's not the price I paid. I actually won it in a raffle for $62.50! I was just trying to ascertain its fmv.

I would say fair value is $175 plus 10% for the old holder, so $190ish.

Local coin club raffle? :P

Those are awesome fun and a great way to raise money. I would have stepped up to buy a handful of tickets with prizes like that.
