i think the real question is do YOU think it is worth that much?
PCGS price guide lists @ 200 so i would say 105 is reasonable... if you like sacs (and I certainly do) go for it... graded PCGS can't go wrong... but only buy if YOU really like the coin. looks like a nice 67 from the pic.. would like to see the rev, but the obv seems a little better then a 67 from that angle... but obviously hard to tell without it in hand
Let me start by saying that NOBODY loves the Sacagawea Series more than me. I own everything and then some but the Cheerios and I'm working on that.
I started to do a registry set and I just can't do it. An MS whatever out of a roll is just as good for me as an MS67 or 68 at an inflated price. I was going to go PCGS MS68 minimum. I can't and won't do it.
If you can afford it, and it makes you happy that's as cool as life itself. I'm happy with a Dansco that I built from mint cellophane coins. Real happy.
A story... When I first got interested in coins I bought cool looking silver proofs from the world mints and neat bullion. Thank god silver went up. Soon I bought my first toned morgan from Heritage and had to borrow to pay the $230 win. Scary but I loved the coin. Started buying nice morgans and early commens for awhile. Found this forum and started my education. Reading numismatic books got me going. Now my tastes are very different. Not refined at all but very differnt from when I first collected. For what it's worth......now $230 scares me still but spread those payments out and $$$$ coins are nice once in a while. Good luck.

Never view my other linked pages. They aren't coin related.
<< <i>There are so many possibilities in getting the common Satin Finish coins into regular MintState holders I'd be hesitant in paying a premium. >>
The Satin Finish is pretty different in appearance from the MS coins... it is really common a mistake for them to get into MS holders?

Well - the PCGS certification is worth at least $25 plus shipping...
