This coin {NGC64} was at $600 plus on TeleTrade last night and didn't sell. Has the toner market gone nutzo?

    Could have failed to meet the house's or consignor's reserve. Remember, this is not an auction.

    I was after that 86 but not for that kind of $$.

    This one was pricey too, but in spite of the pic of the cheek I think it has a good shot at a 66. It has a neat little die clash on the reverse too.

    Often times a dealer will price their toned coins at an outrageous premium hoping that a toning fanatic will come across it and pay their absurd asking price. Toning attractiveness is subjective and the coin's owner will always see their toned coins as a "monster" quality. Whether the coins are true "monsters" is another story, and if their coins are attractive they may not be attractive enough to realize the asking price.

    Its an attractive coin if the pic is true, but I woulda thought it might go for around $400 or so; maybe a wee bit more.
