What is a fair price to offer for an 1866 Proof Dime in PR 63?

The ocin resides in an old NGC fattie holder with the gold letters on the back of the slab. It would be the generation 3 slab used from late 1987 to late 1989.
The coin is beautiful in my eyes and looks great for a 63. I am considering buying it, but don't know what to offer. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks, Richard.

Really? Greysheet bid for that date is $525 in PF63. You would offer less than that? May I ask if you have any attractive & scarce type coins in choice grades in 20+ year old slabs for sale, perchance?
Returning to Planet Earth:
I might suggest doing a little surfing in the Heritage prices realized archive for similar dated PF 10c's in PF63 and 64. You can't always tell for certain if a particular coin was nice for the grade, but after a while you will get a decent "feel" for the price levels on these issues.
PS: I have no stake in the 1866 dime transaction.

I would offer what they are selling for at heritage, my guess is that they are selling for under bid as well.
But I still made decent money on it despite my faux pas
In my experience 1866 is kinda a dud date. People looking for a proof coin from the 1860s tend to gravitate towards the Civil War years.
Someone wanted that coin because hammering above 1K was above my thoughts and above auction history
I respectfully disagree. 1866 is a key date business strike dime, so it should get more pressure from people who collect by year and don't mind inserting a proof for the rare P mints.
