Did anyone see the Fine Coin Showcase tonight on Celebrity Shopping Network? They were selling $5 Liberty's for $599. They were AU 55s in NGC holders with the GSA label. Said there were a total of 5,000 GSA gold coins in the hoard and they bought 4,500 of them. They will be periodically selling them on their shows. Said they have $20, $10, $5 and $2 1/2 coins. I think they had 75 or so and apparently sold them all. Does anything think the GSA label will result in a premium for these coins on the open market? I guess I missed out if the answer is yes because I did not purchase one.

I am sure that for enough money they (the owners) can get someone to slab labels whatever they want. However, they forgot to mention that GSA = George's Super Assets. Nah, there wasn't anything like that from the GSA. 09S-V.D.B.: Thanks for the link, very educational. Frank
Yes, thank you for the info. It will be interesting to seen how soon they show up on ebay and the prices the sellers get.
