The prices on the collector market for vintage Meisterstücks fluctuate considerably and can only restrictedly be traced to individual trends. By way of example, a 139 brought about a year ago around 4500 USD, while current prices lie significantly lower; even a 149 with silver rings lost significantly in value within a short time. The collector market behaves in this respect similarly to the stock market, with partly not understandable up and down movements. Trend statements should therefore be regarded with caution.
