The dollar does NOT trade in tandem with gold except for short spurts.
Well, what has happened to past "hot issues" from the Mint in the last 5-10 years ? The 2019 ASE Reverse Proof -- I think that was a $1,500 coin,...
Were the MSD's legit 69's or graded on a curve, in your opinion ? It's a big coin with big fields so blemishes show easily, unlike on a dime.
I would probably give it a 68 myself, though if you are going by comps, I can see why it got a 69. I see some tiny dings on the reverse rim, but...
I know we've had this debate before so I won't go into the "is it wear" thing again....but you do know that it is almost certainly the case that...

Beautiful coin. Not into toners, but very nice. Congrats !
They must have been rare or scarce coins. I saw a MS-65+ 1923-D Saint-Gaudens go for just under $4,000 (including bp) over at HA. Nice rise, but...
Really ? Wow.....that's surprising (to me, at least).
Absolutely understand...and I get selling an occasional bad purchase at a loss so as not to tie up $$$ in stuff that isn't moving. But you can't...
Whoa...I looked at the picture....is that a "scratch" or a defect in the die ? I thought a scratch would go INTO the coin and that looks like it...
I'm not good at grading compared to most CT'ers, let alone a professional or vet....but if the scratch wasn't a result of cleaning or gross...
Yup, that's it GD. I figure today with regular coins that we use to buy stuff (pennies, nickels, dimes, etc.) you can probably get lots of 69's...
[ATTACH]
But you would not sell another dealer coins at break-even -- or even a loss ? -- for the community, right ? Maybe the Secret Sauce is bid-ask...
I would guess it's easier for a large coin to have dents and dings in the fields and on the devices as it comes off the press.
Something that I don't understand ....GD here has said that 80% of the business at big shows might be dealer-to-dealer BEFORE the show even...
"The Best One" -- a Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle from the Wells Fargo Hoard -- is up for sale over at GC (ends Sunday night). It is graded MS-69,...
Carson City Double Eagles (anything from CC !) have been hot during Covid.
The price guide is close to $40K but recent auctions seem closer to $20K ? Have to check actual auctions instead of listed auctions for...
