Just when you thought it was safe to collect Canadian coins

ajaan

Take a look at what this modern Canadian Dollar brought.

1967 Dollar

BTW, I think it is way overgraded by ICCS standards. It's not too pretty IMO.

Aethelred

I would not think that a 5 would be that hard to make on one of these!

ajaan

Three graded by ICCS as of January 2005. I wonder how many have been graded since. I also wonder how many more will be submitted now.

goossen

there is no safe place...

$1,000 + poorly spent IMO.

MadMarty

But that coin would be a MS67 at PCGS!!!

<< <i>$1,000 + poorly spent IMO. >>



I wonder if a PCGS 65 would bring this kind of money?

MyWorldCoinTypeSet

Wow. I'd expect a flood of 1967 dollar submissions to ICCS.

Eye appeal means nothing at ICCS. The strike looks good, and the surface looks clean. Can't really tell the lusture from the scan, though it does appear to be a bit hazy.

Depends on who needs it for a registry set.

ajaan

The haziness is what I was referring to when I said not too pretty.

Why do I get the feeling that AH Collectibles is going to be cranking out 1967 dollars in ACG MS-66 and above?

ajaan

I believe that will be the highest price ever paid for a MS65 1967 Dollar. I see a flood of them being certified.

They could certainly try. But lately they seem to be having a hard time maintaining consumer confidence. I wonder why.

What Wybrit said...

Clankeye

A grading service rarity. Not that I think gem Mint State examples of this dollar are plentiful... but, I sure think there are enough of them out there to take that price down.

theboz11

That set that is for sale in the swap post has a nicer one and I can't get the price of the gold for the set, something is wrong here.

coinpictures

That is one fugly coin.

Time to dig through the modern mint set crap at the local dealer...

*bleagh*

1jester

I wonder if that haze is PVC damage?

lordmarcovan

Madness.

How much is it worth to be one of the first three on the ICCS block with a '67 in 65?

bosox

Only takes two to go nuts. Wonder what my 1858 cent pattern in copper nickel (Pop 5 total) is worth based on the scale this goose established?

It's worth 3/5 the hammer price of his coin (his is one of 3 while yours is only one of 5).

My last post was a bad attempt at sarcasm. In all seriousness I paid $1000 a year ago for this PCGS MS-65 Red coin. Would you rather have the goose at $1,300? Not me.

I would not pay that kind of money for the Goose either... don't care about the grade. Why? because there are boat loads of others that may not be quite that nice, but nice enough for me and I would rather spend real money for real rarity.

shirohniichan

It would be hard for me to part with $1,000 or even a few hundred dollars for a clad coin in higher MS grades just because there are so many substitutes available for less than a few bucks. For example, if 1969 25 cent pieces in MS67 had a pop of 1 and there weren't any known hoards, one could still get a PL example in 67 or so for the price of a few PL sets. On the other hand, there aren't any cheap 1899 cents in SP65 one could use as a substiture for an MS65 example.
