Is it insanity? or registry fever?

Wish mine was a higher grade and not 1992 d close am unc details scratched obv.....but I do have 1.....and will see that one on Thursday....

[onecent1909]

Its not my money, but why would you take the risk to loose so much not if, but when the coin population and price drop? WS

I am looking at putting together a cam/wam/transitional sub group of 20th century circulation quality..sti;; working on it...I'll be hunting on Thursday at summer F.U.N.

What I find amazing, is these are not listed on Copper Coins. I asked Chuck one time as to why. He responded that he felt these were not varieties.

[kloccwork419]

Wow, current bid of $16,000.

I would say yes it is a variety ,its a transitional variety but it still wouldnt belong on Coppercoins. You dont see RDV-006s on there. Its info you can easily find on other sites. If your looking for a price, look on the TPG site that its graded at. I dont use Coppercoins for prices anyway, I do my own research to figure out what coins are going for. I use it for listing #s

While I agree that the value of this variety can be found with TPG sites and auction realized prices, info on the 1988-D RDV-006 is a bit illusive. As far as Copper Coins, Bob says that there is a plan to add these design varieties in the near future. I use any price guide as a starting point for pricing. I get most of mine from completed auction prices. I am still very excited that this particular coin is doing so well on HA.

It's a rare coin

It's a rare coin and worth big bucks....that's why we all search for the bugger.

I have spent years looking for one with no joy.

I have also opened at least 100 rolls of OBW 92-P&D coins with no joy.

Sounds like you need to try Bob's method for joy...eggnog !

Yep..me too. Maybe they will just add the info on a side bar link

And likewise we have all searched for 1972 Die #4's and PCGS has graded 7 of those Vs. 6 for the 1992 D. That makes the die #4 just as scarce in my book, but not worth $5,000 or more.

I think the the main difference is who is buying. If I had to pick 1972 #4 vs 1992-d cam I would choose the 1992-d cam.
though I still think roger should have given me his 1972 #4 as a bday present.

LOL its my birthday in 7 days, give one to me too

[onecent1909]

Went to F.U.N. saw the 1992 D close am...
very nice.. but
Reverse had a light hairline scratch to the left of the E in E pluribus unum...and a dig under the I in America..
Obverse had some what I call minor plating blisters near the date and mint mark...
STILL nice coin...right now at $18,000...

[DCW]

Ok, it's a rare variety... But you could purchase a 69-s ddo in AU for this price!
Difficult to understand how this has approached $20k.
And it's not even designated full red!

[RWBILLER]

Just shows what my Dad would say: "even the Rock of Gibralter is for sale for the right price!" or what P. T. Barnum said: "there's a sucker born every minute!"

But - I would like to find one!

[liveandievarieties]

What a lot of buyers might not know is there's a handful (5 or more) of uncertified full red examples of this coin out there that show no signs of circulation. There were at least 2 different multiple coin finds from BU rolls. They'll hit the market one day.
