GSA CC Dollar Give-Away!

gsaguy · April 19, 2011 1:42PM

Time for another GSA CC Dollar give-away!

Here are the rules. Check out the ebay auction in my sigline. Yeah, that's an 1864 Seated Liberty Dollar in a GSA Softpack. I think it might be unique, but don't really know for sure. I have an idea of its value, but don't really know where it will end up in price. That's where you guys can show your stuff.

Guess the final hammer price and win an unopened GSA CC dollar. I say unopened because it's sealed in what I believe to be a telemarketers packaging. I can see the black box, but that's it. No way to open it without removing the plastic shrink-wrap and breaking the security seal.

I'm hoping you guys will enjoy reading about the 1864 Seated Liberty Dollar. It's been in my collection for a very long time and I'm sure there will be lots of interest in it. I'm also hoping there will be some discussion of the coin here in this thread, as well as GSA dollars in general. And, of course, I'm hoping you guys will make the counter on my auction spin like a top.

Get your guesses in before midnight Pacific time this Friday......FINAL HAMMER PRICE......closest one (over or under, no matter) wins the GSA CC Dollar. In the event of a tie, he who guessed corretly the earliest wins.

Edited to add: To keep it fair for everyone...NO EDITS AND ONE GUESS ONLY!!!!!!!!

Good luck and enjoy the give-away!!!!!

GSA Softpacks are quite common. GSA Softpacks with Seated Liberty Dollars, not so much.

See, education in progress.

The coin looks to be EF or so. By itself, it's about a $1000 coin. I'm going to tripple that for the GSA packaging $3000, and then subtract $250 for the poor photography.

That puts us at $2750 plus 10% for the free advertising here and that brings us to $2925.

Thanks for the chance.
