    Imagine what a 1958 Double Die Obverse would bring in an auction.......and that is also not a registry coin.

    No chit. There would be a lot of left nuts offered up if a 58 DDO was auctioned.

    The 36 DDO2 is not really a great DDO, I guess I was just stunned that it would be a $7,500 coin in PCGS MS66.

    Maybe I'll win the next lotto and ......

    Check the prices on the 1922 weak D (non-registry), they're sky high.

    I agree! I sold this G06 weak D for $280 LINK and I was shocked!

    Of course you guys are referring to "No D, Weak Reverse's" & not "Weak D's" image

    The registry just carries a few pop tops to values above where the would be without a registry. The current market conditions in general carry the general increase of 99.99 % of coins' price increases. Most all references that prices, or price increases are due to the registry are just "sour grapes" from those collectors who are either priced out of the market, or those dealers who don't deal in certain market segments that are doing well, imho.

    I've been selling pcgs graded 1982's of all 7 varieties to many different persons!

    Most of these sour grape collectors would have us believe
    that these coins wouldn't even be collected if not for the registry, that the only reason to
    collect crap is to compete with others collecting crap. I seriously doubt the registry has much
    to do with the price of any coin. Just because two registry collectors are bidding up a specific
    coin doesn't mean the same two wouldn't be bidding it up if there were no registry.

    The top pop (?) 65BN Weak D sold on eBay a year or 2 ago for about $575.

    There is a VAST difference in value between the Weak D & the Weak Reverse.

    I also don't understand why on some of the "weak D's" you can see the D with the naked eye (even in some krappy pictures) but for others you can't. On some even with a loop it's near impossible to see it yet PCGS still calls it "Weak D". Seems a need for a further class (ification).
  • drwstr123drwstr123 Posts: 7,040 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I agree, but my point is, the weak D isn't included in the variety set yet it continues to draw large dollars.

    Is it too rare to be collectible for the average-regular-fantastically-wealthy?

    The 1922 weak D goes off in 3 hours. Any guesses as to price?
  • DMWJRDMWJR Posts: 6,008 ✭✭✭✭✭
    wow! That was a pretty good price for that coin.

    PCGS has made two 63 red "Weak D's" and one 64 I believe.
