  Wow talk about buying the plastic! At around $1500 that's what, way over a grand in cellophane--

  while I understand your frustration, very, very, few of these exist in any type of Government holder and this is a true rarity... even thought the coin is in the fine range
  
  edited to add: okay... even if it is VF, I don't think that changes the story

  To me, that is moon money. Maybe if it was closer to AU58 condition I could see $1200.00 tops, perhaps someone really wanted it.

  To be fully honest, as I clicked the coin I was thinking how there could be an uncirculated GSA 92CC I wouldn't pay 2 grand for?---Then I saw the F12/15 coin and thought, gee that's an interesting piece of packaging but $1550??? WOW..

  I don't understand why GSA packaging adds that much value?

  I heard they were making a French version of Medal of Honor. I wonder how many hotkeys it'll have for "surrender."

  you are paying for packaging and not the coin...

  Simple--People, including me, collect GSA CC Morgans and pay a premium for the originality and history involved. If you got the only 92CC it would be very important, not so much for the coin, but as the only Unc. GSA 1892CC. In fact the main concern would be authenicating the originality of the holder and card (if it survives) rather than the MS grade of the coin.

  Those GSA soft packs are interesting items. They do have nice history.

  I wonder if the collectors know what there getting themselves into.
  
  From the list I seen, about 90 different morgans are in these packages, as well as
  most peace and a few seated. I decided against collecting them for that reason, as
  well as I can't think of a nice way to display them
  
  (oh, and I can't afford them too)
  
  Course I can understand paying for the plastic. Just have to think of it as one product, not
  just the packaging for the coin.
