These 4 different 64L IHC’s all PCGS 66 RB sold in the last few years. Two sold this month in the $3,000 range. One sold for $7638 and another for $5750. Why do you think that there is such a wide price range?

    Agree. I like the third one the best, but photos can be deceiving, especially with reddish copper.

    I agree that #3 is the most expensive of the four. I'd guess that #4 is the second most expensive, the $5750 one?

    If they were in auctions, then the reasons for the price differential could be personal taste, need for the grade, perceptions or just raging testosterone.... Cheers, RickO

    Before seeing the prices I picked # 3 as the best. It has little, if any rub, and very consistent, eye-appealing color.

    Door number 3 but they are all keepers in my book. Looks like lots of choices out there for any budget and comfort level if you take the time to see how these come for the money.

    I don't like #1 and I don't like #4

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    I too like #3 the best and love it's luster and color. I think that it has more RD than this MS66RD, which is the CoinFacts plate coin:

    And.................if graded RD it's value would be in excess of $30,000.
