A 1972 MS66FB Roosie sells on eBay.....UPDATED PLEASE READ!

Yes...A 1972 MS66FB Roosie sells for $271.00 and I am very thrilled for the new owner, but what I find very interesting is that there was a lot of 6 MS66FB's on teletrade about 10 days ago in which there was a 1968-D, 1971, (2) 1972's, and I believe a pair of P/D 1984's, all in MS66FB and that lot went for $230.

Why such a price flux between 2 company's selling the same kind of coins?

You could have bought this lot, sold your extra 72 and got paid about $40 to buy 5 coins. I wish I could have been so lucky, but thats the way the slab crumbles!

Later, Paul.

Later, Paul.

    Paul: Excellent example of someone who appears to have "given away" their clad dimes in a bulk lot. Like you, I missed that sale too, which was bad news for that Teletrade consignor and great news for the winning bidder image
    And, it goes both ways with the various auction companies. I have noticed TT prices are strong in some other areas.

    Paul, The group on Teletrade had a 72D 66FB in it and the eBay coin was a 72P 66FB. Big difference.
    Its all about the pops and not just the pops for the grade. The 72D 66FB in TT has a pop of 9/1
    with 18 designated for all grades. The 72P on eBay has a pop of 5/0 and these are the only five
    that have ever been designated FB for all grades. Just 60 days ago the pop for the 72P 66FB
    was 2/0. The 72P is far rarer then the 72D in FB.

    I received an e-mail about the eBay coin as to its value. I placed it at $250 - $350 and recently sold
    one in-between those numbers. The TT dimes sold for under there value but not by a wide margin
    and the eBay coin sold for what it was worth. I had a snipe bid placed at $200 for the eBay coin
    just in case it went cheap. The program never got the opportunity to place the bid. I also had bids
    in on the TT dimes to see if I could steal them, I didn't win any of those lots.

    Nick/Paul: So, the TT lot didn't have a 71(p) either, as Paul originally mentioned?

    Nick is right I had both coins on my watch list, and they both sold for about what they were worth. If there was a chance at picking up some great full bands cheap, I would have been there. I need some upgrades but funds are limited right now, so I have no choice but to bottom feed

    Wow! That was a real bargain then! The consignor got raped.

    Paul, I stand corrected. You are absolutely right. I thought you were talking about
    auction #1902. Here is how TT listed the auction.

    1968D Various Dates, FB PCGS 66 (6 Items)
    Including PCGS M66FB Dimes of 1968-D, 1971, 1972 (2), 1984-P, and 1988-D.

    I was bidding in that auction and never saw this. I skimmed over it as a 1968D.
    There's over $1000 worth of coins there. I don't know if TT grouped them or the
    consignor. I'd like to know who bought them, I'd pay $1000 right now for the group.

    What does this post have to do with PCGS Set Registry?

    Am I missing something?

    One of the coins we're discussing is a pop 1/0 and one the top
    registry set owners would want to know about.

    In case you missed it, the Set Registry forum has been renamed the Set Registry/ Roosie forum, since the Roosie guys are so instrumental in keeping the reg.forum lively.

    Onlyroosies, in my experience, it is always Teletrade that groups the lots together in such a way. Unfortunately, the consignor has almost no control over that aspect. It's a real disservice TT offers, and as we see here, it can be very costly to the consignor when good coins get buried in a lot that is easily overlooked when skimming an auction.

    Evidently I do not know my Roosies that well. I put a bid in on that lot with 1 minute to go at $250 and TT said that I would need to bump it to $260 because I tied the Max high bid. I only wanted to go $250 because of finances. I sometimes do not have what it takes to step up to the plate.

    I'm still kicking myself for not buying that lot!

    It will be different in the future.

    I only understand about 99.9% of Mitch's comments and always assumed the rest was worth reading to everyone else.image

    WHERE COULD A PERSON GET A PROGRAM THAT PLACES A SNIPE BID.??????????????

    Paul .. The same goes here. After two nice Roosie's I bought from Nick I'm shucked for awhile. But I did see the TT auction and noticed the deal. Wish now I had said something on the boards before they sold. Mitch could have had the one he needed, and maybe I could have talked him into holding that 72 for me. image
