I have available the 2001(p) New York State Quarter grading PCGS-MS69. This is a pop 1 in this grade for not only this particular state, but for the entire state quarter series. I will entertain serious offers on the coin for the next day or two. If I get an offer I am happy with, I will let that person know that we have a deal on the coin. If I do not get an acceptable offer to me, I will likely post the coin on ebay in the very near future or just hang onto the coin myself. I will not counter-offer anyone. I wanted to give forum members "first shot" on the coin 
Please PM me with serious offers. Wondercoin

You always said that you wanted to be the first person to offer a MS-69 State Quarter on the forum. You got your wish.
Don't suppose you could make an exception to the rule and get a scan of this one for all to enjoy?

But what's with this yard-sale-like "PM me with serious offers" thing? Post your price in public, chicken!
I posted mine, it was lots of fun, really!
(I just received my PCGS NY in MS68. Anyone who says these look like MS67's are way off! There IS a difference!)
I can't wait to see your MS69 Mitch. It's just gotta be a blazer!

You have to remember that Mitch was a lawyer, so you will never get a straight answer to your question.

I have problems most of the time understanding your post about the pricing of the states and high grade coins in general. Where are you coming from. Do you think we are all idiots here !!
For general information "There has never been a MS 69 graded Washington Silver, Clad or State". This is a truly remarkable coin and one of a kind. I think we are looking at $15,000 minimum. We will probably never know.
Mitch - where do you find this stuff..

Which comment are you not understanding:
1. I just wish the coin carried a greater weight than 1 in the new weighting system for state quarters. I am sure this is going to be an expensive one point jump.
2. The value of MS68s has already started to drop. Check out Ebay to see the new "blue light specials" on some MS68 State Quarters
As for comment #1 that I made, all I was saying is if you are competing in the registry set for state quarters, to go from a MS68 to a MS69 on a coin with a weight of 1, this will be an expensive point. If it was a Georgia with a weight of 4 you would be getting a lot more points for your money.
As for comment #2, someone asking if a MS69 was affecting pricing on MS68s. I just stated that the prices of MS68s including NY-P are coming down. NY-P were bringing $500 and now they are down to less than $300 on eBay.
I never said or implied that anyone was an idiot, that is your comment not mine.
You stated that you think it is worth a minimum of $15,000. I bet if you offered Mitch $10,000 - $12,000 for the coin he would take it. I know I sure would.
Where's that pic you promised?
Dennis,
I agree that it is a shame that the NY issue is becoming a common coin in MS-68, which means that the weight for this piece will never get what it deserves without revamping the weighting system.
That being said, would still be a nice piece to own. But if one can be found, you can be assured that people will seek another. That's what caused the flood of MS-68's.

Mitch, if I buy this one, and crack it out, will you buy it from me raw @ 80% of what I gave you for it?

Isn't is quite hypothetical, and really, unreasonable?
Please explain your logic in attaching a value to this coin when it is cracked out?
Isn't this the same old "coin vs. plastic" thing?
Please don't get offended, because I am also working on a PCGS type set, and I don't want to put down anybody that enjoys collecting coins, but my response would be "Please explain your logic in attaching a value to a coin less than a year old that is in a holder." Yes it is the only one, but I would say wait five years and see what the pops do.
If you believe it is graded fairly and would get another 69 and be worth it, wouldn't you want to buy it back? The plastic therefore would be meaningless. Am I wrong in my thinking?
Cameron Kiefer
To 99% of the population, a coin is worth it's face value, regardless of when it was minted. That explains why places like post offices and movie theaters still receive non-circulating coins as payment for services. While working in a movie theater a few years back, I received SLQ's, Mercury dimes, Walking Liberty and Franklin halves, and Ike dollars in my till, as well as silver Roosevelts and silver Washingtons.
Keith
Please understand this fine point. Yes, if you crack-out a coin from its plastic, no matter its value, grade, eye appeal, or rarity, you can spend it for its face value.
Thank you again, on behalf of all those here who know nothing of registry set collections.

When this person takes the 9 at $15k, your $200 looks miniscule, and not worthy of another thought.
What a huge favor this "dumbest person in the world" would be doing for you, right?.
Could you scan your 68 and a legitimate 67 and point out those oh so obvious differences. Well maybe not scan because I think you'll need to do some macro photography in order to display just what those difference are...then again micro photography might be more appropriate
On the serious side

Congratuations on the MS-69 which I've learn from our many previous discussions is not at all an easy coin to make. I'm also curious (along with Supercoin) about what you feel the market value for this coin should be. You didn't think Supercoin's asking price for the Goodacre Sac was reasonable and you gave your reasons for feeling that way.
This is not my way of starting trouble but you did question Supercoins valuation of the Sac and I think it's only fair to hear what you believe is the fair value of the 69 State Quarter and discuss the factors that when into your determining a fair price.
On proof coins, it may be harder to spot the 'point', but on Clad Mint State coins it is easily there.
peacockcoins
I am interested in this coin, and these questions as to value are not appropriate.
Mitch, I'm sure understands this obvious point, and as a potential buyer, or THE buyer of this coin, I would surely richly chastise Mitch, if he were to give in to your appeals.
PS. YOU only get to see the other player's cards, when YOU put up the bucks to "call" his hand.
Questions about the seller's valuation of this coin are absolutely appropriate, esspecially in light of the discussion Wondercoin began regarding the valuation of Supercoin's Goodacre Sac. Just about every coin sold, whether in auction or through some other means, is accompanied by the sellers reasons for setting the selling or reserve price. I'm interested in what criteria Wondercoin would used to decide whether a particular offer was a fair offer for this coin and how that price fares with other coins in the same price range.
I can say that the coin is presently on hold for a collector and I will likely know tomorrow if the coin is still available. If it isn't available, it will be up to the new owner to disclose anything he elects to disclose about his purchase.
Last fall, I ran a series of photo examples of high grade moderns for review on the board. I lost the website the pics are hosted on, but still have the pics. I'll post them here. The first coin up is a Virginia quarter in PCGS MS-68, both reverse and obverse. The next will be the Kentucky quarter in MS-67, both reverse and obverse. I made the Kentucky from a mint set and purchased the Virginia piece. The Virginia quarter is still in my personal collection, but I sold the Kentucky, so I can't look at it if you have any questions.

There is Coin Rarity (low mintage/low survival rate) coins and there are Grade Rarity (high mintage but low state of preservation).
Debate and argue the value of each (or, lack of value), but please don't preface your statement for or against by the weak opener of but... but... it's a 2001! It's only one year old!!
Otherwise, give me a cherry slurpee and a 7/11 balsa wood glider so I can really re-live my youth.

I think you're confusing pmh1nic's post with mine, my lone post asked simply why you didn't list a price (well, ok, and I accused you of being a chicken, but I said it with a smile). However, I would be happy to participate in such a thread, but it would be pretty boring without comparing asking prices of the two coins, don't you think?
FWIW, I agree your sell thread isn't a place for such a debate, but since it's long since turned into one and you've brought me back into it yourself... here is my issue:
If I get an offer I am happy with, I will let that person know that we have a deal on the coin ... (snip) ... I will not counter-offer anyone.
You're asking people to bid blind on what I presume is a five-figure coin?? They take all the risk of overbidding, and you have no commitment to deliver even if they are the highest of the bids? I can think of a few other reasons why you might do this too, but they're also pretty cynical.
As far as the chicken part, c'mon, all this stuff about not being able to disclose anything, or even, as you mentioned in another thread, post a scan (horrors!) without permission from the soon-to-be new owner? Well, as of yesterday you were the sole owner, and could do whatever you like, right? What's to hide?
So I gotta stick with my chicken statement too, sorry.

I didn't personally take this photo, but if you'd like to know who did, PM me your best guess. I'll either confirm or deny it. Maybe. You only get one guess, better make it a good one.
From a scan he can usually tell if they are authentic or not, as well as just what they are. He can always do it with them in hand.
Please quit PM'ing your guesses, and get some sleep.
and I will only have to pay a quarter to do it!!!

What happens if someone deems it to be an MS68? What happens one day when PCGS is not the premier grader? What happens when a fingerprint shows up from the grader in a few years? More importantly, and more seriously, how can the Pop reports be considered solid when so little time has passed and people may not have submitted for grading yet? Isn't it super-risky to spend a lot of money on something like this, if you care at all about not throwing money out the window? Since grading is subjective and the large amount of in-between shades of mint exist, couldn't their be MS68s that look as good as that 69? Am I missing something or is there a rush for goodies and lots of acceptance of assumptions and risk? What has happened to similar "hotties" from 5 or 10 years ago?
This game seems dangerous. Pop1, please be careful.
