Hi
Here's the link. So for it's worth $455.
The seller says it's BU so depending on how this gold piece grades will determine its value.

Huh? Slab? What slab? All I see is a screw-type Capital Plastics holder with a raw coin in it.

And at that price, maybe I ought to bust my 1901 PCGS MS61 $10 Lib (which used to be ANACS MS63) out of the holder, put it in a Capital Plastics holder, and sell it raw... it seems it would get more money that way, if this auction is to be believed... !

(That is a nice looking coin, however. No way would I bid Mint State money on a raw gold coin , but it is pretty. Might be a worthwhile gamble for somebody willing to take the risk. Not me, though.)

Anybody want a 1901 $10 Liberty that is PCGS certified as Mint State, for less money than that raw one? I might even leave it in the slab.

Did you notice that all the high bidders for the coins have 1 or 0 feedback, and the bidder with the 1 feed is from the seller. makes you wonder if he is shilling the prices up...

I labal almost any single coin plastic holder a slab, kind of. No reason to be a smart ass

This is an escheat auction from the State of Pennsylvania. Normally this is property from bank safe deposit boxes.
There is no shilling from the seller, the State Treasurer.

What!? You guys think a government official would use a shill? It could never happen, they are our trusted public servants - all that they do is honest and above board.

That is way too much money! I remember this seller, and I have aways noted how they get ludicrous prices for the stuff they sell. You can buy a nice 1901 in a 62 holder for less than $300, and unless this one turns out to be a 64 it's overpriced. Of course it's hard to tell what it would grade from that scan.

Well at least I'd trust the Treasurer of the State of PA to deliver the goods I think that is part of it. I don't doubt a "certified appraiser" has declared the coin uncirculated.

Even Pennsylvania is trying to get more for their stuff. I should run down to the California treasurer and see if he has any gold for auction! I bet there used to be great deals by being the only one there who knows coins and has cash.... or do you all often find this kind of auction?
