I sold this 1938 Proof Lincoln PCGS PR65RD on eBay, and it ended last week. Greysheet is $175 or so, and they usually go around that. Imagine my shock when it ends at $280! I received positive feedback today, I was expecting the guy to return it after he looked around, but he didn't. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

I hadn't thought of that but it makes good sense!
60 years into this hobby and I'm still working on my Lincoln set!
