Cool, a $28,000 coin for the bargain price of $130!

Russ

Less than 24 hours left to steal this one!

I figure sellers like this help keep drug companies in business.

Does the deep cameo for this coin come in a seperate container like when you buy chicken nuggets and the sauce is in a little plastic cup?

Dimetime

Not too bad looking, but maybe $27,990 overvalued.

Tassa

Gee, the cost of shipping is only $10, too!

Russ

Hey, $10 is dirt cheap on a $28,000 coin!

hey, dont laugh!!!

There are alot of people in the registry that will pay 28,000 for a 10 dollar coin if it's the right date in the right grade slab, tell me, is that a lie? Les

baccaruda

kidding aside that is a pretty coin.

foodude

Maybe the bids in dollars, and value is in yen, anyone have a calculator.?

Russ

Ahh, the perfect coin for my PCI Registry set. When complete, my $1,000,000 collection will only set me back a few hundred.

Yeah Russ - but there's only one difference.

Your's doesn't come with a VERY RARE banner on it - hence its only $50

baccaruda

true, Russ - but i didn't mention a price did I?

is that reflection your eyeball?

CLASSICS

some people still beleive in the something for nothing, i will steal this for pennies on the dollar, and there is still a santa claus type of thinking.........

Russ

<< <i>is that reflection your eyeball? >>



Nah, it's the logo on my business card. Held it there to show the mirror depth.

What would you give as a grade to that PCI coin, from what you can tell from the picture. I would guess a 66 CAM possibly, a bit higher or lower. I have a nice PCGS 66CAM and think contrast on my coin better, but only a scan.

Your opinion appreciated. Plus might prove to be a lesson on how many points/designations a PCI Kennedy should be discounted in comparison to a PCGS Kennedy. Thanks TG

MS69 Deep Cameo hey? I'll take my 67Cam over his 69Deep cameo any day. . .

Gotta love those PCI coins...

Overheard a dealer at a show about a month ago bragging about how many sets he had busted to finally get a 69 Ike, then he held up the GOLD PIC slab so very proudly! It was all I could do to not fall on the floor laughing at him, had a sudden case of igottaleaveitis and almost ran away from his table...

TG,

Based on the image in the auction, and my experiences with PCI and their grading of Kennedy's, I think you're right on the money. It's likely a 66CAM which, in a PCGS holder, would put the market value at about $100. If it did squeeze in to a 67CAM holder, it'd be about $400 to $450, which is still a far cry from $28,000.

I also think the coin is iffy for even just the cameo designation, and PCI called it a DCAM. The reverse is certainly cameo, but the obverse is very weak. You'll notice the images are shot at an angle to make the coin appear more contrasted.

baccaruda

whatever Russ, you're trying to talk it down so you can grab it for yourself.

I've already got a check filled in with $28,000.

Your business card doesn't just happen to mention the flab-whacky, now does it Russ?

PhillyJoe

Someone must think Santa is going to pay a visit in May: final bid (of 40) of $765. wins it.

Joe

Russ

Yep, some poor schmuck just got ripped but good.

Russ, NCNE

baccaruda

d'oh i forgot to bid!

what do you mean ripped Russ? it says right in the auction that it's worth $28,000.

Russ

OOPS! I meant to say that some lucky stiff just scored a screaming bargain.

Russ, NCNE

baccaruda

that's better.
