I have heard there is some speculation over the "rare" original.

A good one will bring a good price. Depends on the carvers reputation for hanging around, quality of coin, image, etc. 30 to 500 you never know.

Art follows the stock market.

Attention to detail is the main requirement.

It's like anything else in engraving. If it looks like a chicken it better be a chicken. An extra wing or leg is only good at KFC. So carve what you are best at and make it look right.

Never judge Ebay till the last minute. 30 bucks can go way high in a matter of seconds or you can get trashed by bid snipers
when in doubt throw a reserve on there.

I think it's better not to sell than to give it away. What doenst sell this month may be hot the next.
