Superb AU Gold!
Good grief, man! How in the world do you randomly buy a $30,000 coin?
At any rate, that is an unbelievably gorgeous example of early US gold!
Nice find, and rare. Still looking for that type, in a little lower grade, any year but 1807.
wow, 220 year old coin still with nice luster +++
Stunning example! Well done. Beautiful $2.50.

Heck of a coin, congrats!

Amazing piece of early US history!!!
Nothing like "old gold". Enjoy.
Great coin. Congratulations!
Love that coin - congrats on a great pickup. That early gold is in a class all its own!

Very nice. It will certainly look good with your other early gold.

You never know where great coins will appear! Are you doing a date set or varieties?
Thank you all for the nice comments
I have a date/variety set.
Lovely coin!
Having fun while switching things up and focusing on a next level PCGS slabbed 1950+ type set, while still looking for great examples for the 7070.
Yeah, that’s nice, that’s really nice.
Just let me know if you want to do a trade I got a half set of Kennedys, lol.
That's just got a lovely look! Congrat's!!

Lovely Sheila there. Well done!

congrats - I love those early $2.5 gold. Some share the reverses of the Draped Bust dimes. Its pretty cool that there is no demin on the reverse. I always wanted to get into these early $2.5..... Gorgeous coin. Love it!
