I no longer collect coins, the ones pictured used to be some of those in my collection.
I'll stick with my grade. That's one expensive coin. What did PCGS grade it ?
Many, including professional graders, will say that is exactly why eye appeal is the most important. And that includes circulated grades.
Nothing makes it 2x bullion value. But some people are crazy enough or unknowledgeable enough to pay it anyway just because it is in a slab.
