    Wow. Some things are worthy of a high price, I suppose. Very nice.

    Looks like the seller did very well on this one ... US $1,375.02 ending price.

    I thought it would do better. I know what the seller paid for it and he broke about even on the deal with slabbing. This coin is not cheap in any auction and it is the last mining thaler of Germany.

    This seller had a large number of very choice PCGS-graded coins that ended this past weekend. I bid on several and struck out (badly!) on all of them.

    I would interested in Forum members' views on why the prices listed in Muenzen Revue are generally lower - in some cases, much lower - than those in Money Trend. For example, one of the coins sold on Ebay this weekend was an MS-65 1903-J mark. Muenzen Revue lists it at 500 Euros in Stempelglanz, while Money Trend is at 1800 Euros.

    Any clue as to what's going on?

    I guess I was fortunate in that I was focusing only on one coin that he had up for sale as I wanted to take care of my "must haves" before starting in on the "nice to haves" ... so ... the University of Leipzig should be on its way.

    This leaves the University of Berlin 3 Mark and University of Jena 2 Mark as the next coins on my hit list ... while the Mansfeld 3 Mark would be nice ... I would need to save up for quite some time for that one.

    Oh well ... so goes the hunt ....

    Don't like the pictures of that one. Something is off. Looks heavily dipped to me. It might be the lighting, but that color and lustre doesn't look right to me.

    Could have been sent through NCS then crossed over to NGC ... definitely looks cleaned.
