Did not think they would put this in a holder

PCGS? Maybe. NGC uses the Genuine - Surface Hairlines way too much IMO.

It does appear to have been whizzed at some point.

I think either one would holder it, PCGS would use a genuine holder.

Is up to $663...hmm wonder what my au55 is worth?

No way should a coin with that much damage be called uncirculated.

I suspect it was submitted just so it could be classified as genuine- these were counterfeited

a very popular coin

NGC would have noted "UNC details, excessive hairlines" if they thought that it was too much. I don't think it's whizzed. Extremely popular with a lot of excellent counterfeits. It is now above $1K and I won't be surprised to see a lot of snipers at the end (3 hours+ as I'm typing this).

I don't get the price. These come up in Italian auctions by multiples all the time. I like the design but wonder with all the fakes if now we have more than were ever originally struck...
