  • PCGS has mega-inflated price guides. The greysheets have it at $1050.

    And NGC commonly overgrades gold. THat coin is more of a XF45 IMO

    based on the pictures, since that is all i have to go by, the coin
    is really an xf45. the luster seems impaired, has the hairline
    look in some areas, and was probably discounted to move.

    the 2000 price at pcgs is for a pq example in 55-58.
