WTB:THAT 1954 STAR FRANKIE IN THE NGC MULTIHOLDER SET

CB2597 · February 12, 2009 11:55AM

Saw that 1954 NGC Multiholder set with an NGC Star Frankie a few days ago... being one of those who pm'd the seller too late...by then it was long sold to whoever the buyer is. So a message to the buyer : if your planning to sell it could you send me a pm first pls? Thanks!

Is this the one chameleon had on his site a few months back?

PawPaul · November 1, 2009 10:49AM

yes- thats the one , where could it be ?

PCcoins · December 3, 2009 11:31AM

It originally sold on the bst for $125 I believe, and the stupid part is I saw the post but decided to pass on the set.... Now I'm thinking I must have been drunk when I saw it.

<< Is this the one chameleon had on his site a few months back? >>

Yes that was the one...lol

PawPaul · December 4, 2009 1:06AM

so , where is it?

CHAMELEON · December 4, 2009 10:56AM

The person I sold it to may be willing to part with it, or swap for other certified rainbow toned Frankies graded MS-65 FBL or better. I'll give him a call.

Got some sweet Franklin 1/2's on the way back from PCGS right now.

PawPaul · December 4, 2009 10:01PM

what did he say ?

CHAMELEON · December 5, 2009 12:04AM

The coin is currently at NGC, being put into an individual holder. He said that he would be willing to sell it if someone made the right offer. I don't know what the "right offer" would be, but feel free to throw an offer on the table if you really want the coin. He would consider swapping it for another exceptionally toned coin too.

PawPaul · December 6, 2009 2:52AM

........you think he might provide a pix that was not "awful " ?

then we can commence with the offers

CHAMELEON · December 7, 2009 4:08AM

I don't think he has any pictures of it, other than the one's he got from me. I think I deleted all the photos I had of it besides that one (which I pulled off another site I had posted it to). I'll have to do some digging to check, and if I find any better shots I'll post 'em.

CHAMELEON · December 7, 2009 8:46AM

Thank you. There's a lot more color on the coin than you can see in the picture, but that is a nicer pic.

PawPaul · February 9, 2010 7:53AM

.....get that thing in a PCGS MS65 FBL holder and i'm in at 1000$

jhdfla · February 9, 2010 8:04AM

<< .....get that thing in a PCGS MS65 FBL holder and i'm in at 1000$ >>

Too many hits on the bust and lower part of the bell to get it in a PCGS 65 holder (especially these days), IMHO, at least from what is apparent in the pics.

PawPaul · February 9, 2010 11:29AM

lot's of color there ............could make the grade because of that

PawPaul · February 28, 2010 8:26AM

what happened with this coin ?

CB2597 · February 28, 2010 8:36AM

Somebody bought it off Ebay a few months ago...

PawPaul · February 28, 2010 9:08AM

.........and then ?

bestclser1 · February 28, 2010 11:21AM

I would also have interest,and have MAJOR trade bait.

MrD · February 28, 2010 11:32AM

You mean this one??

Never saw it.

PawPaul · March 1, 2010 12:28PM

well........... If Mr. D got it it's not likely to be seen again ............

PCcoins · March 1, 2010 12:34PM

I know he auctioned it off a while ago.

MrD · March 1, 2010 12:41PM

But I do know where it went

Marauderrt10 · March 1, 2010 1:17PM

I would just forget about it. I was bidding on that set. The coins went for moon money.

PawPaul · March 2, 2010 11:01AM

if someone gets the half in a PCGS holder @ MS65 or better I'm in for "moon" money........

MrD · March 2, 2010 12:06PM

Its going back to NGC for a regrade and seperation from the other coins.

GoldenEyeNumismatics · March 2, 2010 2:09PM

Out of curiousity, what do people generally think the value of this frankie to be?

I know nothing of toned frankies. IIRC I bought the entire set for something like $80, and sold for something like $130, so I was (and remain) content. But all this excitement has me feeling like the true value of the piece is much greater.

editted to add link:
heritage
Never saw the piece in person prior to bidding, but figured it must've been nice to get the star.

PawPaul · March 3, 2010 7:32AM

I would start the bidding @ 400$ for the coin in a PCGS MS65 holder

Marauderrt10 · March 3, 2010 9:34AM

<< I would start the bidding @ 400$ for the coin in a PCGS MS65 holder >>

might want to start higher, i know people who wouldnt flinch at 1250

PawPaul · March 3, 2010 11:30AM

I have my finger on the pulse of the Franklin market and have been an active buyer and seller for decades .

I would find it extremely hard to believe that this coin would sell at a level anywhere near even approaching 1250$ in a MS65 holder.

kryptonitecomics · March 3, 2010 11:41AM

All I know is I just pulled this out of a double mint set today and although the best toning is on the reverse...I think it's a nicer coin than the 1954 posted....of course it does come from 1958 but just comparing color....this think literally glows in the dark and isn't spotty like the 1954 and it looks like the second side is much nicer toning wise then the reverse of that 1954

PawPaul · March 3, 2010 11:52AM

Monster '58 ..........

is it for sale ?

kryptonitecomics · March 3, 2010 12:06PM

<< Monster '58 ..........

It will be....I always let Skyman have first dibs on my 1958 mint set stuff......if he should happen to pass I know CB2597 is dying to get his hands on it. You know it just really comes down to price and I am not giving this coin away for a few hundred as the colors are just out of this world.

CB2597 · March 4, 2010 9:16AM

Would someone pls. sell that NGC Star 54 to PP already?

JupitarCoins · March 5, 2010 5:34AM

<< Would someone pls. sell that NGC Star 54 to PP already?

Really

PawPaul · March 5, 2010 7:38AM

I would gladly buy it in a PCGS holder !

PCcoins · March 5, 2010 8:26AM

<< I would gladly buy it in a PCGS holder ! >>

Don't be hatin' on ngc

MrD · March 5, 2010 9:00AM

Funny thing is its the same coin in either holder.

PawPaul · March 5, 2010 11:21AM

I don't think it is a MS65 by PCGS standards

MrD · March 5, 2010 1:10PM

Now I understand.

what were the results ?

MrD · April 19, 2010 11:59PM

Don't know if the owner sent it in yet.

PawPaul · June 4, 2010 11:59PM

.......we still don't know - or maybe we don't want to ??
