Last PCGS MS70FS I saw was sold for around $1,000, maybe a year ago.
Most of these have some sort of toning, the white examples are elusive.
You never mentioned a TPG, are you refering to PCGS?
Oh yeah welcome to CU!
Hello skibum, and welcome!!

The juice is never a lot unless you don't take it
into consideration when you are bidding.
As long as you figure out the most you are
willing to pay, including the buyer's fee and
shipping, and bid accordingly, you're always
okay.

Ive sold a few examples for more than 1k over the years. I still hold the 3rd example graded 70smsfs of the 94-p, and at one time
that puppy was worth mega bucks, had a few board members try and pry it from my hands, which I avoided. Now the pops
went up way too much and my prize piece shrunk, so to say

Three trips up to Okemo last winter, can't get enough powder.
Just peeked at the 94 SMS in 70FS, listed at $4500.

I dont like the new holders on these, the originals were marked SMSMS70FS, which they should have stuck with IMHO
edit to say: The ones I were familiar with and handeled where all green labels, I have one of each in the SDB, when I get a chance Ill look.
If I remember the ones I sold on here over the years and ebay I always had the title SMSMS70FS which was taken direct from the label, but eh Im getting old, could be wrong.

I'm not much into the holders, but the coin is awesome!
I like that date and look. The matte finish is attractive IMO. I prefer a bit of reverse toning which seems common for those coins left in the original mint packaging for a while.
<< <i>No I was in for about 800 with juice . to rich for my blood .I'm not realy a jefferson coll. anyway. hard to under stand if this would be a good investment anyway. looks like the price has come down some. did you like the toning ? hard to tell form the picture.plus had a new roof on put on my house this week. >>
Heritage has the best, IMO, coin imaging features. Did you just see it on eBay? If so, I suggest & you might consider signing up with Heritage directly. I'm pretty sure it'll save you some $$$ if you bid directly with them & leave eBay out of it.
