    I assume it was a "new PCI" slab. If so, I'd say MS66CAM.
  • I like guessing image

    I guess 67 Cam.

    Sounds about right.
    I noticed eBay had a PCI SMS69DCAM with a BIN of about $170.00. There was a second one with a high bid (at the time- last night) of $130.00 or so.

    It'll probaby loose the "D" in DCAM with PCGS and a couple of points.

    Edson,

    I was watching that coin, as was PhillyJoe. I downloaded and analyzed the scans and concluded that I could go up to $50 on it. If I remember correctly, I think it went for substantially more. I think PCGS will grade it 67CAM.

  • Russ,

    Thank you. I give-up on $200. I did the same thing and conclude that problaby the DCAM condition is not true (at least to PCGS), and not justify the risk to try a cross. My expectation was to reach a 66DCAM but you are right. Will be dificult to keep the Deep Cam grade.

    Once again, thanks.


    By the way you saw the 1968 PR70DCAM sold on Saturday?

    Edson,

    Yep, I was watching that one. I think it would have brought much stronger money if it would have had decent images and a seller that actually had some eBay history. As it is, I'm surprised it brought as much as it did considering the risk of buying a coin like that from a new seller. I hope it was done through escrow.

    Nothing like starting your collection with a '68 Proof 70 D/C. Probably a beautiful coin. Thought it was my eyes that were out of focus!

    No CAM, probably MS66. Hope I'm wrong!

  • Russ,

    Just to confirm your point, I sent 4 messages to buyer, asking about the possibility of pay by escrow or COD and asking for better scanners.
    No answers. I hope the buyer protect himself with some guarantee. If the guy was a little more "communicative" and I'm inclined to pay a little more than the last bid.
    Let's go to the next...

    I also tried contacting him on numerous occassions and received NO replies. That's why I stopped at about $1300. I hope it was an honest deal and that new fellow learns some tricks/tools of the trade and maybe he'll come up with some other nice coins. Ray
