1911 Matte Proof Prices On Them

I would check some Heritage auctions also to get a feel of worth. Check completed auctions on ebay also. Or if you want some really nice ones-

Brians coins rule the world....I drool everytime I look there. That toned 1916 blows my mind.

Brian Wagner has some nice matte proofs and would be an excellant choice for someone to talk to about those types of proofs.

First off it's your money and you spend it the way you want but I certainly don't know how in the world that 1911 matte is "overpriced big time." The mintage of that coin is 1733 and the total population report for NGC and PCGS is 505. Try buying another coin of that mintage for around a thousand bucks.

The 1911 on E-bay is now over a thousand and David Lawrence has one in his auction at $900 plus 15% juice.

In my opinion, the TPGs are asleep at the wheel when it come to pricing these beauties.

Wanna do a little test? Ask anyone who collects matte Lincoln if they have any for sale at PCGS prices. If anyone here has a matte VDB that thay are willing to sell at TPG price guide, send me a pm, we need to talk.

I the interest of fairness, I have a complete set and I wouldn't sell mine for double the PCGS price guide and I doubt that anyone else will either.
