FSH: Error 1909-S VDB NGC 64RB with rim clip

I have the opportunity to downgrade to an XF example which is more in keeping with the other coins in my date set.

This coin exhibits nice woodgrain toning typical of the date, with lots of mint red showing. The clip is approximately 1% at K-12:30 and shows nicely in the holder.

It is possible this is the finest example known. I am aware of about five others, the only two graded coins I have seen come to market in the last ten years graded NGC AU58 and PCGS MS60. Both coins were sold on eBay, the former realized approximately $1400, the latter $1700. I purchased this coin on eBay in 2012 and offer it today at a slight loss, at a price in line with similar non-error examples of the same date and grade.

Asking $1950 postpaid

    Very nice, Sean! I hope you don't have seller's remorse! :)

    I'm addicted to exonumia ... it is numismatic crack!

    TTT. No remorse here, I'm actually excited about having a nice raw example to slip into my album with the rest of the set.

    Bumping this for the new week. I will listen to reasonable offers on the coin.

    TTT. Sending this up the chain again. Any recommendations for a non-eBay venue where this may find more interest - maybe GC?
