That's silly. It's all one color; you could probably AT that with relative ease.

I know it's silly! It's up to $200+bp now, for a coin that lists at $30! I also know it's not an uncommon color for older proof nickels (I've seen several just like it). Apparently it is caused of the kind of packaging they used at the time. It would be one thing if it were an extremely rare color, but even then...

I was going to throw in a 20ish dollar bid on the thing, cause hey, I like nickels fine and it's purdy, but dang... $220 now as I type this...

Heck, I'd even throw $60 or $70 at in on a stretch, but $220 is absurd.

Yeah, Teletrade is a rip off retail operation masquerading as an auction house.

Wow, that is a 6X mark up. To each their own I guess.

Really? I hadn't gotten that impression at all. I see gold go for melt there all the time...?
