Sure, it doesn't lack issues, but come on. These guys are cool no matter what the condition.

Just wanted to share!

(Obviously, not my coin...)

    Agreed, but much better places to put $20k.

    I know...
    What would be a fair price for this FA2 coin?

    Not sure, but I would guess $8-12K.

    While rare I would have a hard time paying up for that even if I had the money.

    Overpriced for what it is. For $20K you could find a nicer specimen with some looking.

    I would pay high 5 figures for that and I don't collect territorial gold and maybe its one of the rarer die pairs /states

    I would definitely not lay out that much cash for such a coin.... Cheers, RickO

    You do know that "high 5 figures" would be like $80K or more or did you mean high 4 figures?

    Is that including numbers to the right of the decimal? image

    Here's what $19,550 can buy you in a NGC problem holder - much better deal - HA archives, 2-3-12.

    Lowball collectors though seek problem free coins.
    Problem coins in low condition are generally (maybe outside of the rarities like the above coin) not wanted.

    A coin I wouldn't want to own.

  • BillJonesBillJones Posts: 34,723 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I'd like to own one of those, but that's too far gone for me. I think that $20,000 is WAY too high. I think that $8 to $10 is a reasonable number for a space filler like that.

    I know it's not the same coin, but a dealer on the show circuit has had a Pan-Pac octagonal $50 gold for a year and has been unable to sell it in the $20k range. The coin was found in a wall of an old building and is all beat up, but it does show all the detail. Still it's not selling.

    Point taken, Yes i meant 4 figures. I obviously don't dabble in that pool very often and misspoke. I could see paying 8-9k

    I would think 3X's to 4X's melt is worth it for the history alone.
    They do contain about 1.5 ounces of gold, no?

    A little less that 2 1/2 ounces or 2 1/2 times what's in a double eagle.
