    Hey gang!

    I picked this coin up a few weeks ago in Orlando at FUN. I thought I'd share.

    An indian headdress and a phrygian cap, how interesting. I particularly like the fact that she is resting on the globe with liberty surrounding it. Nice toning as well, a cool addition to be sure. Thanks for sharing.

    That's a beautiful coin. Congratulations!

    Welcome, and WOW!
    Is all that I can say.
    great pickup.

    For those of us who don't usually see/buy patterns (read: me) what does something like that go for?

    Thanks for sharing.

    Frank,

    This coin took some research to figure out an price on. The only other PCGS graded specimen is an PF66 that came out of the Bass collection. It sold fairly recently for somewhere in the $14,000 range. NGC has 5 in the census but I suspect it is really only 2 or 3 coins. The coin posted is prob worth in the $5,500-$7,500 range at the right auction.

    Produced the coin is a low R7 which means an estimated 7-12 pieces are known to exist today. This coin as far as I can tell is #7.
