 Beats me what happened. Just a couple of days ago an NGC ms 65 sold for $50.00. I would have bailed out on this one about $86.99 earlier.  |

He may have been hoping for a 66, way to many hits on the obv.  |

Hits on both the obv. and more so on the reverse...if they wanted a 66 they ain't gonna get it.

It's a good looking coin.
After a soak in acetone it might go as an NGC MS-65+ PL.
Time don't fly, it bounds and leaps.

I once asked a buyer why they paid a couple hundred for a common insulator on ebay. They said money was no object to them and that their hobby was the excitement in bidding on ebay. It happens. I would think there is also not always a numismatic reason for auctioned coins.  Edited by Earle42

Earle42 you may be correct, I find they never bid on my auctions though. Very disappointing.  I need more crazy bidders to max out my coin sales that I'm doing to fund some family medical bills (again).  "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R. Feldman - "And read it" - Me 2013!

Thanks for the replies and Welcomes, everyone.
USSID18, that's a very illuminating chart. Care to divulge where it's from?
Looks like I'm in the MS63-and-below club. (Of course, couple of drinks, ok, maybe bid on that MS64...)

The Stager Numismatics Quarterly. I thought this was the Grey Sheet. Very similar. |

Unreal. Ungraded no less. I would expect that if it were with the 2,372 others in PCGS MS64. And that's being generous with something from a guy named Bubba.
