Here are a few prices from last nights Pacific Rim auction.

1942S Threepence PCGS MS66 - $3680.00 (including BP)
1951PL Sixpence PCGS MS66 - $8337.50 (including BP)
1943S Threepence PCGS MS67 - $11,500 (including BP)

And a bargain?
A 1946 Penny PCGS AU58 for $437 (including BP)

Sadly, most non Top Population / MS64 or below coins struggle to meet estimates or even sell...

Geez Louise ...... at those prices it would certainly justify the cost of having them slabbed!!!! Crazy!

Happy to stick to my 'working class coins'. :angel:

Working hard to make the grading
Getting 64's is just a pain
Grandfathers coins left to carry on
Varieties his claim
oh oh oh he's a working class ...... numismatist

I have a 1954 3d that would easily go Ms66 or better.
I wonder if the same silly sods would want that for the bargain price of $5000 :laugh2:

There are 2 MS66 1954 3d's on the registry. One is in the 2nd highest rated set.
If you want to make the big $$, better get it graded soon. Once the big spenders each get the TOTP coin the prices come down real quick.
You keep bringing this coin up, I'm hanging to see what it will grade at heheh. I thought you may have already had it sent over.

I may send it to Walter and let him have a squiz at it and see if it is worth sending :ok:

Until you've sent over a number of coins you cannot say with any real certainty what PCGS would grade a coin.  I've send in hundreds and I am still learning.  Send the coin to Walter or Eric or myself and we'll give you an idea of what it might grade.
