Not to pull a Kiefer, but that coin was discussed at length a week or two ago. The consensus was that it looked crappy. I'd bet it looks a lot better in person, though!
It's amazing to me that someone who owns or is charged to sell a $100,000 coin (+/-) would not do a better job marketing it for sale. (Last time I made such a statement I offended a friend from this message board--apologies in advance. )
All I have to go on are the images, and as far as I can tell, that coin is a joke in a PF68 holder. Just another example of NGC's liberal grading of 66 and above Morgans. I like them up to 65, but over that, no way.
I don't think it looks half bad myself. Actually looks kind of original and I'd be more inclined to consider that coin over the blasted Super Duper UCAM Double Star fresh out of NCS pieces that everyone is used to seeing these days. I'm not saying I like it as a 68, I probably wouldn't but I was expecting an uglier coin when I saw the responses to this thread.

Is that anything like pulling a boner?

What's worse? His typo, or the fact that a lot of us completely missed that?
agreed. Ugliest damn PF68 I've ever seen.
