    That's a really nice large cent - tempting!

    The little video was worth way more than the photos. Good thing I am not into large cents!

    Video certainly brings that coin to life. Heritage charges $500 to video and display at their auctions.

    I have the first 1855 that PCGS graded MS 65 Bn, I think it was the first submission my dealer sent in for me. Mid 80's

    It too, has a Cac sticker but the coin is not as nice as your.

    So tempting, closing on a house soon or I'd have already snagged it.

    In the not too distant future I expect videos to be the norm for all auction houses as well as places like ebay. To be honest I’m not sure how we’re not there yet. Guess they still need to find a way to scale it cause $500 is not it but for a coin where images don’t do it justice I’m guessing consigners would be happy to pay a more reasonable fee for the service.

    Now on GreatCollections give it a watch if you're interested. https://www.greatcollections.com/Coin/868069/1855-Braided-Hair-Cent-Slanted-55-PCGS-MS-65-BN-CAC-Toned

    Wasn't one I thought would do well there since it doesn't image as well as it is in hand but it's also a tougher to find variety with the slanted 55 so we'll see what happens!
