    The redolent puissance of your observation rivals that of the "divine afflatus" previously attributed to another's gas-passing remark.

    Those who can, do. Those who can’t sit around on coin chat rooms and bloviate about how much knowledge they have and how everyone else’s posts show they have none.

    How’s that working out for ya?

    One piece of unbloviated knowledge and experience.

    You have steadfastly refused to acknowledge the provenance of a certain 1795 $10 PCGS 64+ CAC.
    The provenance most importantly includes that of the highly-revered Norman Stack. You implicitly deny that each and every time I mention his name by refusing that acknowledgement. Neither you nor your partner bothered to research this impressive and very easily identifiable coin when her auction company sold it.

    I not only owned that coin, but also the now (undeservedly) higher-graded Eliasberg coin. Norman's name will be remembered long after both of us. Mr. Johnson, are forgotten.

    I'm 77, half-blind, walk with a limp and can run rings around you with nothing left but my "B" game.

    How's that working out for you?

    I've even praised your posts when they've given useful information. I just enjoy, when given the opportunity, playing Whack-A-Mole with your ego. >:)

    Your partner would happily attest to my being a pain in the ass. My friends can barely tolerate me :'( Either of them. :*
    What's your point?
    She would also attest to the many personal kindnesses I have extended to her since we first met in 1979. I've likely had more conversations with her about her personal health than about coins in the last ten years.

    He had to have been talking about the KOS 67. The KOS set was at Mandalay Bay.

    Ooops, my apologies and thanks for the correction TDN. Yes, it must have been the 1804 dollar in the KOS set I saw on display at Mandalay Bay years ago.

    I do wish someone would list the real grades of these darn things. I haven’t seen them all but based upon conversations and personal observations, this is my wag:

    Pogue-watters:: 65-
    King of Siam: 64+
    Dexter 64-
    Eliasberg-Mickley 63+
    Reed:63
    Hansen: 61-
    Smithsonian: 58
    Cohan - ANA 30

    What keeps yours below 64? Based on the Trueview I am thinking 64+, with only the chatter in right obv field holding it back from the assigned grade.

    Well, I consider it a 64 so not sure if ‘below 64’ is accurate terminology. Reverse is a gem, obverse is a 64- so maybe these days it’s a solid 64.

    Oops NM, thought yours was the Eliasberg coin, but it is Dexter. Agree that yours is less “overgraded” than the others.

    There’s all types of numismatic knowledge- I missed the realized prices on the Brasher, the 1933 and the 1804 by under $1M….combined.

    So you were the underbidder on them?
    If you weren't bidding, it's all (credit to that BeeGees) "Jive Talkin'".

    You might consider that to be knowledge. Others might consider that to be really good short-term market sense combined with lack of any adequate long-term financing >:)

    Your '94 is prettier. And pretty cool. That's about the only bone anyone has left to throw you. :s

    Didn’t bid on any of them. Yah, call it a good sense of the market. Whatever - it’s knowledge. I’m the financial guy, not the numismatist.

    I was hoping for higher, but it's the right price as was said. The higher priced US Mint coins are also "big" coins but with the added benefit of being either unique or unique to own. I do consider the SP66 1796 dollar to be unique.

    Oh, Mr. Big Swinging Johnson, how puffed up you are today. And yet it's so simple to huff and to puff and to blow your deteriorating facade down. Detumescence is a b!tch. Your numismatic tombstone will likely read "He knew the price of what was statistically virtually nothing, and the value of even less"

    On a purely selfish note, can you gentlemen have a scotch and chill out? I rather enjoy learning from both of your numismatics experiences and would prefer to not have you both banned over petty crap.

    Thanks for the "gentlemen". But even metaphorically, "detumescence" is not discussed in genteel company.
    Now, about your grading...... ;)

    Really disappointing result but I can't say I'm surprised. Holding it in hand, I just felt really... meh about it.

    I love the history of the coin. If I hadn’t been outbid on the watters 1804$10 (which was subsequently flipped) then I would have been an active participant on this dollar to reunite the pair. They are ALL overgraded- it’s kinda a misnomer to expect their value to be lower because the grade doesn’t match the coin.

    It would have been great to reunite the two Sultan of Muscat coins.

    I wonder if the SOM Eagle owner won this one as well.

    Agreed.

    TYVM and pretty nice images!

    it is nice to be able to focus on the devices and technical aspects of coins and get away from toning/surfaces etc, especially on a monster proof like this but of course, can't have one w/o the other so the TV are nice to have in tandem.
