    OH MY! I'll go count my change. I remember when XF was $400 for a piece and I took a pass on one. Now I must pay much more for the delay., and it has always been the KEY to the Cars on Coins collection. So goes coin collecting these daysimage

    I've been quoted absolutely ridiculous prices on these coins in the past few weeks in the same grade.

    One rep from Stacks quoted me $4200.00 at Baltimore for their ICG45.

    At CICF, we were quoted $6100.00 for an ICG45 from a small dealer near us.

    We'll all be dead and buried before these things bring that kind of number.

    We have a customer who is actively seeking one. This is the first one I've seen with a reasonable price on it in some time.

    Great design. That one looks much better than the VF one they sold for 1250 recently.

    A decent example... does not look original but still a nice and attractive coin for the grade.

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    Silly stupid question #844:

    The coin in question is ICG, as well as the two you reference. Seems kind of odd that all 3 would be certified by one of the lesser TPGs (read: non-big 3). I would think that if nothing else, by pure random chance, one or more would be PCGS, NGC, or ANACS. Or does ICG have a special rep when it comes to Chinese material?

    Most likely all three were from the same collection and same submitter. The only problem with ICG is when it comes time to sell.

    I am partial towards the Birds over Junque from 1932... the Auto Dollar is a great coin, but finding an outstanding example is very tough.
