I wonder if there is a correlation between NGC's market perception and the prices realized? It appears to me that a 2012 NGC62 garners less respect that a 2007 MS61 esp considering that the market has been tracking up since then too. This coincides with my overall impression that NGC has been tracking down and the American coin market is becoming a one horse show where Darkside is still an open TPG market.

 

My guess is the economy has more to do with it than anything. one or 2 less bidders can really change the price. A lot of areas in coins are soft right now. I know this is a killer coin and a great buy if you ask me, but that is a chunk of change also. Not everybody can afford this coin.

 

Congrats and well done!
