Hello, I am a new member here. My father collects coins from German East African and South Africa. He asked me to purchase the coin shown at the link below and I was wondering what your opinions on its value are. South Africa ZAR GOLD Pond 1892 Double Shaft NGC XF45. http://www.auctiva.com/hostedimages...05,520954862,520954855&formats=0,0,0&format=0 Thank you for your time.
I am South African and also collect those. My opinion, XF 45 is minimum grade to be collectable above melt value. The NGC price guide is not a bad reference for the grade. If presented to me I would not pay more than 1200 US including melt value of 392 US. http://www.ngccoin.com/poplookup/Wo...ory=123673&worldcoinid=316208&FromSearch=true
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, my dad had to have it for his collection and I paid $1728 for it.
