1876 Twenty Cent Piece from Heritage Fun Auction MS64 Gold CAC

CoinPhysicist

PCGS Cert 8101658 - MS64 Gold CAC

Wow! I noted in my mind that I wanted to see what this coin sells for in the 2020 FUN auction because it sold publicly at auction with Heritage 256 days ago at Central States in Chicago...

April 28th 2019 - $9600
January 8th 2020 - $13200

Not fresh material at all. Definitely surprised that it sold for more than 30% more after only 7 months...

All depends on who is in the room

There's been a lot of talk about Rattlers lately. I wonder if that had anything to do with it.

No provenance mentioned either time on Heritage or on PCGS Cert Verification (provenance or Registry Set):

Could be several reasons... Who is there, how many are there, how many interested in that coin, how deep the pockets....Cheers, RickO
