I hate guessing game quizzes ...... much prefer a straight-up honest topic that gives the facts and lets us comment on them for purposes of education and support to the CCF community. What is wrong with just saying the prices without all the mystery?  OK .... since you asked .... I guess 10 cents each. Does that help anybody out there? My Two Cents worth. David

I agree with nickelsearcher, I dont mind a contest now and then or a "guess the grade" type post but I hate to wait to find out stuff like this.

Had 6 or 7 responses within the first hour'ish (including mine). I've been watching this thread for 4 hours now, and the op has logged off. I guess we won't get an answer until tomorrow. It was fun the first 60 minutes, I'm now with nickelsearcher and jokingjoker.

 sorry for the delay but I was called away and haven't even been on the computer until now. F. 12 equals $1100 F-15 equals 1150 However, I looked at them for over an hour and I cannot tell the difference by EYE between the two. Being a regular I can get them 750 and 825 respectfully. Again, I apologize for the delay! This is the first thing like this I have ever done and I was told myself I would answer the question within three answers.

I would typically agree, however I am not sure where we are headed as a country! In the last eight months I have seen and touched coins that I have only ever read or seen in a book. This tells me that serious collectors are in trouble! for instance, he has graded Morgans such as 1893 Carson City, 1895 Philadelphia, 1894 Philadelphia, and hundreds of other key dates that you rarely see anywhere that are coming up almost daily.
That would make a great question or poll. How low do you think the coin markets will go?

I'd be getting the $$$ together ASAP at those prices. Those prices are WAY below CDN ask....plus, they are PCGS slabbed. Both would be buys of a lifetime.

I'll pay you $800 and $875 if you'll pick them up for me. PM sent.

This is an opportunity that I would not hesitate on at all. One of them would definitely fill the hole in my Dansco.  The other I would keep in the slab. Yeah, I said it. There is a first time for everything!

upon doublechecking with the dealer he is asking $975 per coin not the amount I stated earlier. I got to thinking that that was quite a bit off the book.

Quote: hemisboats: ...serious collectors are in trouble... There's definitely been more selling of Morgans in the past year. Denver is a big Morgan market, so I see stuff like the 1881/1885 CC's, 1893-95 Phillies, etc. in dealer's cases regularly. The coin I've been keeping my eye on is the 1893-S. More of them have been showing up at local dealers, anywhere from AG-3 to VF-30 grades. The fact that I saw three slabbed VF 1893-S'es at local dealers in the past year (2009) would suggest that they were from long-term collections being dispersed. The good news is that all of the '93-S'es (regardless of grade) have been selling very quickly, so the money is still out there for them. Every '93-S I've seen in a case was sold in a week or two....

Is that asking price for you as a regular, or is that the price to anyone that walks in the shop? Earlier you said he had prices of $1100 and $1150 on them, with your prices as a regular much much lower so maybe some clarification is needed here. Thanks. :)
