1800 Gold Half Eagle

I just saw one of these rarities at my local dealer's shop, Alabama Coin & Silver Company. He just got it at a show. She grades NGC XF40. Quite an amazing sight! BTW, the asking price was $4700, or WAY over greysheet!

Am I wrong or is everything nice dated 1800 or below twice sheet?

Placid

Sounds reasonable to me if its nice for the grade.

Rather, I think it's the case that "the sheets" list prices are about half of the real amounts nice coins of these early types currently trade for.

Sheet prices for early gold are just that. "Sheet"!

Would be a steal at that price four years later.

There are many coins on the sheet that can't be found for sheet.

Actually, sounds like a fair price.

The sheet hasn't kept up....

doh

Yeah, that actually sounds like a really good price.

Look at the OP date. I brought it back up to show how much prices have changed in four years. If you could find one in XF, it would be $7000+ now.

That could be a down payment.
