Is this a good deal?

Ebay item $299.95 or Make an Offer

When looking up the cert #, shows value at $475.

Is this something smart collectors jump on or is there anything about it that would give you concern? Actual photo from NGC-

There's another one on eBay right now, at $299.00.

Seems to be the going rate.

Considering it has $125 worth of platinum in it and it is not in market preferred collector plastic, I would say no.

Sorry for sounding clueless (but I am), what is "market preferred collector plastic"?

There are more NGC graded 70's then there are PCGS graded 70's
So a PCGS 70 will command a higher price in the marketplace then a NGC 70.

He means NGC instead of PCGS.

My concern would be the large price difference between PF-70 and PF-69, and possibly the thin market for proof platinum coins(??) Just don't know how popular a series it really is....and one "distracting mark", or spot, (or unfavored grading service), on that MS-70 might make the strong money collectors run.

I think you'll find that playing in the HIGH grade area requires you to be very knowledgeable in that area.
