So is anyone going to pull the trigger on the SP69 1854 Kellogg $20 or what?

I know some people here can afford it!

You know, it just might be worth a non paying bidder complaint just to be associated with such a historic piece.

If it wasn't for that scratch on the reverse at 3:00 I would snap it up in a heartbeat. But I only like quality coins!

It didn't get a bid. I wonder how much the eBay listing fee was?

The story of the auction was featured on the cover of Coin World this week. The seller appears to be reputable.

Four dollars and some change.

Give me $1.95 million, and I'll find a way to scrape up the last $50,000. Promise.

$4.80.

This seller owns the allegedly first produced 1794 Dollar.

But the reserve price fee is $100.00 I believe....

Whoops- My error.

Darn--the auction expired before I had the opportunity to bid on it.

Worry not. It's been relisted. Bid away !

The seller, Steven Contursi is well-known in the coin business.

Hey RYK do you want to go in on the coin with me 50-50!!!

Darn oh darn I missed it too.

I'm sure he's a reputable seller, I just think it's funny that his first-ever coin on eBay is listed at $2,000,000--that's an ambitious first sell!

RYK

Reece,

Sounds good. You pony up the downpayment; I will scrounge up the rest. Wait there's no "O" on the reverse. Forget it.

D'ya think the ebay seller actually owns the coin?

wayneherndon

It was a 10-day auction. Listing fee is $5.00.

Looks like a good way to draw attention to an eBay debut.

Wierd-I just got an e-mail from Peter Cabral at Rare Coin Wholesalers and he asked me to call him tomorrow morning!! Wierd maybe he saw my post to RYK on the 1854 for 2 million!!

RYK

Reece,

If you need to sell any NO gold to make the purchase, please PM me.

(Remember, lots of coin people read these boards--many more than post.)

Forget the actual coin, it's insignificant. The only questions any REAL numismatist should be asking himself about that coin is....WOULD IT CROSS, AND HOW MUCH MORE IS IT WORTH IN A PCGS HOLDER?
