Thanks Cookiemonster! This coin was a very rare find, there were only 4 of these in the entire coin show. And the original price was $1500, but the seller let me have it for $1200. PCGS price guide lists it at $1250, so I think I did pretty good to start off. The coin beats the other MPL I bought, which was a 63 BN and the toning wasn't as nice as this one. I wish I could get a picture of the toning in action.
Four Matte Proof examples at the coin show, not 4 1910's. 2 1913's, 1 1914, and the 1910 I purchased.
Got an AMAZING DEAL on a raw 1921 Peace Dollar in apx. AU53-AU55 condition for $110! ...I just got really lucky
2008-W I picked up 5 set of 4 & sold 1 set. and still have 4 complete sets sealed at Bank box. but I pieced out the 5th set.
I plan on selling this coin - so I would rather not say what I paid and I don't want to say what I'm asking as it'll sound like "spam". This coin also carries the Peter Shireman pedigree; I picked up this MS 63 after he purchased his MS 65. I sold off my 1901-S Quarter in PCGS AU55 in order to afford it.
A Proof Trade Dollar graded PR65 by PCGS that I paid $4800.00. Also bought a proof Liberty nickel that was graded by PCGS as PR 64 DEEP CAMEO that was not cheap.
My record is £500 for a Jesus' lifetime Tyrian Shekel. I'm not likely to spend that much again for quite some time. The only reason I was prepared to stump up that much is because it is probably the single coolest coin type ever minted...
