Finally selling my duplicate (would you believe???) 1945-P MS-65FB dime as I saw something I really wanted even more!!!
This is in an MUCH older PCGS holder!!! It is a wonderful dime and extremely high end for the grade. I believe it is a shot MS-66FB but did not want to crack it out of the old holder.

Note that there are already 6 different bidders and the price is already up to $6900 with the juice.

    Oreville,

    Ill bet you the coin brings over 10K with the juice. That is the nicest I have ever seen by far!

    I just noticed that the price is up to $7,762.50 including the juice with 7 different bidders. I have never seen such competitive internet bidding quite like this with 6 days to go before the floor bidding. This coin has already set a record price for Heritage on this date/mm/grade, although I have paid more for my other 1945-P MS-65FB 10c dime which is definitely a MS-66FB quality dime.

    Since this coin was in fact purchased by me in a Heritage auction just 16 months ago for $6900 including the juice is a first hand indication that coin prices are indeed very strong. As such, I put a very strong reserve price on it as well.

    Cool looking coin. Someday I hope to own one of these.

    My FB mercury dime set is incomplete without this coin.

    The price is up to $8,625.00 including the juice with the same 7 bidders. Just a little over 3 days to go before floor bidding.

    The price is up to $10,062.50 including the juice with 10 different (!) bidders. Just a little over 2 days of internet bidding to go before the floor bidding.

    Holy mackeral! I have seen such intensive on-line bidding before!!!

    I even admitted that I only paid $6900 for this coin just 16 months agoimage

    Now, I am beginning to understand what Laura/Legend is talking about!!!!

    So far,a nice little profit for 16 monthsimage.Al

    Grip: So far, Heritage made more profit than I did!!! image You guys are GOOD in predicting these things!!!

    Quite frankly, I had set the reserve so high I thought it would not sell. But the funds will help finance some things I want to do.

    Example: $36K a year in College fees and expenses. image
