Prices are up!

Prices have gone up for Coburg Badges especially the second pattern ones. See an early post from June that was sold for €7400, and in this case was sold for €8600 from the Dan Tarkington collection at a German Auction house. Won't take long until they hit the €10k mark in a few years time. Note that €8600 + 25% commission = €10,750 buyer's fee.
