Thanks, the prices do seem to cycle.
I like owning them, but there are some holes in my standard user L-N collection
that I should fill
Letting them go would help me achieve that completion.

Hey Ray,

There were even a few of the Bronze #9s that sold for $3300 and $3500. That was
a few months ago.

The collection I’m helping to liquidate had one bronze 9, and I just sold it a
few weeks ago at $2600.

I’m currently selling the 150yr commemorative #1 that was made in 1993. Again, a
few months ago one sold for $1500 I believe. But a few have sold since then for
less. I couldn’t get anyone to bid $1100 for mine (pristine), so I lowered the
price to $850 yesterday, and I’ve got two bids already.

The super high LN did peak a few months ago, but they’re still very strong
compared to a few years ago.
