A bit higher res: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
This picture you can zoom in on to get a better look at the Weitzman 1933 Saint: [ATTACH]
Gotcha....there is a catalog of the King Farouk stuff when it was sold in London, don't know if there's a picture of the 1933 Saint and if it's...
Like I said earlier, a Treasury official said in the 1950's the coins should/could be confiscated along with others.
Unless the catalogs I've seen used stock photos instead of actual ones of the coin.
Interesting, so awaiting higher-res pics.....you think the MS65 grade is OK. Interesting..... Besides a superb reverse, what could counter the...
I've got 2 of the 10, Miss Galore and Mr. Odd Job. :D Working on the rest.....:cigar: :p

I hope enough people comment in the journals and coin periodicals such that PCGS is forced to defend their grade. It's one coin, maybe it will...
No argument with any of your choices, Pub, I like 'em all and have some of them. Here are my 3 choices: (1) SAINT GAUDENS DOUBLE EAGLES by...
Excellent points....you wonder if the rest of the 1933 Saints were out there if this coin would rate MS65. In PCGS' defense....if those marks on...
