So Early Commem Prices Are Weak Huh ?

Here was one that I had zero'd in on. The Obv pic left a lot to be desired and thus I thought I might be able to sneak up on it and snag it for a low or even fair price.... I wasn't even in the right hemisphere .

I'm guessing others looked at the reverse pic like I did and said HOLY CRAP

While Commems in general might be soft the really nice ones are not... end of story.

Check Out The REV on this one.


Edit: Here's the REV shot. ..... IMO Gorgeous.

I'm thinking that you are right

but for the whole coin market

There are at least two tiers for many series, not just classic commems. I viewed a commem @ FUN that was on the Jessica Biel tier -- except affordable and achievable. Heritage's pics sucked, yet it still went for way more than Greysheet would suggest. Looking forward to receiving it

Ah, the ol' bifurcated market.

I have been looking for a number of classic commems in MS66, namely the Lexington and Albany. Most of the Lexingtons are really unattractive our not better than the MS64 coin I have. There was one over the weekend that went for a high price. I am not going to pay an arm and a leg for some of these common commems when they are not significantly better than what I have.

Aesthetically super examples of classic commemoratives are worth strong prices, but the vast majority of commem examples are not sought after very much and are quite difficult to sell, even at wholesale prices.

Jessical Biel tier? Either the coin is extremely attractive and/or it has one gigantic derrierre.
