1947-S

What am I missing the coin is rather plain, but $200 bucks? What am I missing?

I don't know what happen there, the Pop is obviously wrong, and I love Roosies but that is one ugly coin. Maybe the high bidder is going for the ugliest set.

Here's a cheaper onelink

Probably a mistake with the reserve. Its a $20 coin.

OK No one leaves the room untill we find the missing link.
Found it.. Ah and graded before the FB came along. Maybe?

I noticed it is the sans-serif variety. (The mintmark punch that was intended for use on Phillipines coinage). Not really rare, but perhaps a couple of neophytes think otherwise and are battling for it?

Shill bidding ????????

"Ah and graded before the FB came along. Maybe?"

Even if it would grade FB the price is out of line. I just sold a 1947S 66FB to a board member
for $60. Or am I out of line and gave it away...
