To all:

In kingsnorth's recent thread "Order of Glory" he questioned what the current going price for a Full Cavalier set would be. My response was in the range of $15,000.00.

As it turns out, the below "set" recently popped up on a well-known NYC-area dealer's site. Asking price: $14,700.00. Details follow below.

For what it's worth, another NYC-area dealer is currently asking $7,200.00 for a PMD-certified mint-produced Order of Glory 1st Class duplicate.
