PNG member, numismatic dealer since 1965. Operates a retail store, also has exhibited at over 1000 shows. I firmly believe in numismatics as the world's greatest hobby, but recognize that this is a luxury and without collectors, we can all spend/melt our collections/inventories.

Compare the first pair of iimages, a 68 EHR double eagle experimental/pattern piece, with this last pair, an MS-69 HR double eagle. You will see that the two are from different designs. The reductions and hubs were actually made from completely different sets of models, with the HR being Saint-Gaudens' "final" version.

It's not Poorguy, it's Mad Marty. Did he say he owns the coin? He bought the photo on Ebay would be my guess. I'll go 68 since we see it isn't the 69.

I'll give it a safe 67.
