Maybe the 83-D is one of the ones where even the mint sets looked ugly. I got a couple of mint sets like that, where the quarter and the dime are just plain crappy. Bruce |

Bruce I think the biggest thing working for this slab is that no Mint Sets were issued that year. ;-) I'm just a little surprised that 20 years on, it's been decided that an MS-65 is worth more than 168x face....

Bruce....there were no Mint Sets in 1982 or 1983. Souvenir sets from those years usually do pretty well on eBay. ++++++++++ Phil DeMayo - always here for my fellow Stooge When bidding online always sit on your helmet Just say NO to counterfeits |

Maybe it's a bargain - maybe not. there are a number of coins priced at PCGS.COM that I consider woefully underpriced. The market thinks so, too. Does this coin deserve to be one of the underpriced? Dunno. Only way to tell is to try to find a nicer one. Bruce |

I just wish I had a crystal ball, and could come up with that definite list, and start buying now! I hope, for the bidders' sake, that this is one of those cases! Otherwise, ouch! You stay away from my sleeper Morgans! ;-) -- Smile!! Eric Babula Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA |
