I am the lone vote at $75-$100.

I guess 18th century French Coppers aren't too popular with the big money peeps.

I always think of coins that aren't slabbed as raw coins but now I'm wondering: Are coins in original government/mint packaging considered raw?

I would have looked at the mintmark and told you it wasn't a proof.

Yeah, well then you are obviously smarter than me!

I've cracked $100. Was for a coin that doesn't come around slabbed or raw very often. I'm happy with it, will likely get it slabbed eventually so it stores better with its soul mates. Being raw, it was fun doing some tests for authenticity that was educational too that is harder to do when slabbed.

I've bought several raw $100-plus coins on ebay, but of course in the UK few coins are slabbed. I do make sure I am getting them from a reputable dealer if I am spending that sort of money. I wouldn't buy a $100 coin from a seller with zero feedback.

Paid a little under $200 for this one:

Before that, I had never quite broken the $100 barrier.

This one. It was under list price however, I believe the list price is not too accurate and, in my opinion, quite inflated.
