    Does that qualify as a 69?

    I saw the coin in person a few months ago. While amazingly beautiful and mark-free, it is not by any means a 69.

  • yup



    really nice coin there.
  • It's been at the last few Summer ANA shows I've been do. It's some great eye candy. It's cool that it's in a rattler too.

    I can clearly see a few hits in this picture which would seem to preclude 69.
  • **MOW** I'd trade my spare Kidney for either one of those !!!

    If it were a moden Gold Eagle with the same surfaces, I think it would grade MS67 or MS68.
    Still a super coin though.

    I dunno, I have to put a little faith on a old holder with a 69 on it........

    It's much cleaner in hand.
  • That's the one that supposedly sold for $145K at Albanese Rare Coins. Is is for sale again?

  • Wow, someone must have plucked that right off the belt after it was struck.

    It looks like a small scuff right on the cheek. Maybe it's on the plastic, but if not, that right there should knock it out of 69 status.

    I saw this coin at the June Baltimore show. I think it is a amazing coin, but i was weary of the grade. If it was a true 69, then why wouldn't it be sold already?
    It was being offered at Agustin capital Management's table, so it is probably on consignment from them, or someone else.

    I don't understand this comment (and others like it that I've read posted about other coins which have been available on dealer sites in the past).

    I can't speak to this specific coin (and I won't comment on the grade), but we sometimes have cool stuff sell instantly, or sometimes have it last a few months. Often (but not always) there will be a flurry of interest and inquiries about a coin as soon as it is sold to someone else.

    It's a very inefficient market and the person who would buy this coin may not even know that it is on the market.
  • yep she's a beauty!

    The $195,000 asking price may have something to do with it. image
