@darryldarryl, why do you think that the 1948 silver dollar is overvalued? What should its value be then (3/4, 1/2, 1/3 of what it is now?).
I am not agreeing or disagreeing, but I am curious why you think that.

The 48 silver dollar can be found at just about any coin show or coin dealer. A dozen on ebay as I type. I can buy the coin any second of any day if I want to spend lots of money on a coin that has been over hyped for many years. In my opinion the coin is not even close to being a rare coin.

To me, CC Morgans seem a little too expensive.

After the 1948 Dollar which I also think as Darryl stated is numero une , the 1858 Large Cent way more common than the socalled mintage indicates.

I agree that the 1858 large cent is way overpriced, unless it's a scarce special variety.

I read an article about the 1858 cent. The most quoted mintages are definitely much lower than they really are. It may have been someone on the forum who wrote that but I forget where it was now.

The published mintage (from Charlton & elsewhere) for 1858 is low by a little more than million.... it's not 461,000 . It's about 1.6 million. At any coin show or shop, you can have your pick of 1858's, and that's not counting all those in collections and hoards. They've been put away for 150 years because that 461K figure made people do it.

1954 NSF 1 Cent... Too many of these available to justify the huge price tag.
Same goes for the 1973 Large Bust 25 Cent with the exception of a nice uncirculated business strike.

The coins I need are overpriced.
The coins I own are underpriced.
Ugh.

All coins I buy are over valued when I try to buy them and under valued when I try to sell them. Hmmm.  Edited by darryldarryl

Yah, that happens to me too. Seriously, the newer versions of Charlton have the mintage corrected for the 1858 large cent. But Vol. 2 still has incorrect mintages for some of the NCLT issues.

Common circulation coins 1968+ that are priced $2-3 over face, you are really paying for someones time, not the collectible value above that. Some might argue that the highest MS grades are worth a premium, but there is so many ungraded/unsearched rolls out there, that any premium seems to be because not enough coins have made it to a TPG for grading, not the scarcity of the physical product. |
