Been a bit of a fan of these for a while and 2 versions are coming up for sale soon..

Not sure which TGP but one is a 1912 MS62, the other 1913 MS60.

Real world prices?, collectable grade or not?, any collector notes one should know?

Any and all help apprieciated, thanking you.

    From the pops, the 1912s are slightly more plentiful with 283 graded between MS60-63, MS64 - 49, MS65 - 10, and two lone coins graded at MS66. Pretty much the same for 1913 except only 34 coins at MS64 and none higher. They seem plentiful.

    Given the spreads, I'd hold out for at least an MS63 coin. Heritages prices realized seem to average about $200-250 for MS62, but not that much more for a 63. Also, even XF/AU hammers are in the $180-200 range.

    A 1912 SP striking, OTOH, will cost you.image

    A 1913 Sov. recently hammered at $3737, or was it a 1912 sov....no matter, entirely different coin.image

    Cruzi,
    I picked up this coin in an auction a few weeks ago a 1912 PCGS MS-63 and FWIW it sold in Mid $400 range. image

    Hmmm... I think I should upgrade my AU coin if I can get an MS63 in the $300 range. image

    shirohniichan,

    I'm not sure you can without a lot of looking and a lot of luck. The realized prices from Hertitage when I looked them up were higher than MacC stated particuliarly PCGS & NGC with MS-63 grades.

    Good Luck
