AI Recommendation
To estimate a maximum purchase price for the coin in question, we will consider several factors:
1. Starting Price: 3500 euros. This is the initial price of the auction.
2. Condition: The coin has a condition rating of 85 (MBC+/EBC-), indicating that it is in quite good shape, which may increase its value.
3. Auction History: The coin has been auctioned 2 times in the past and has sold on both occasions. This suggests that there is demand for this coin.
4. Previous Prices: In the 2013 auction, the starting price was 4800 euros and the final price was 6500 euros. This indicates that the value of the coin has been significantly higher in the past.
Given that the average final price in the past has been 5550 euros and considering the current condition, an estimated maximum purchase price could be in a range between the average final price and the highest previous final price.
Taking all these factors into account, an estimated maximum purchase price could be approximately 6000 euros. This reflects a value that considers the good condition and price history, but it is also prudent not to exceed the previous final price.
