<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 2194137, member: 112"]I thought it might help to clarify a couple of things. The coin talked about in the article that was just purchased for $646 thousand plus is the Eliasberg-Sunnywood-Simpson coin, it is graded MS65. It is not the Norweb coin. This is the best picture of it I can find - <a href="http://www.google.ca/imgres?imgurl=http://images.pcgs.com/CoinFacts/06666371_1279576_2200.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/7226&h=1104&w=2200&tbnid=fExPdl6U9BWYuM:&zoom=1&docid=3iNN4SeSdt7DjM&hl=en&ei=BOSjVZO_KYm5-AH-7oD4DQ&tbm=isch&ved=0CCAQMygFMAVqFQoTCJPRobDA2MYCFYkcPgodfjcA3w" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.google.ca/imgres?imgurl=http://images.pcgs.com/CoinFacts/06666371_1279576_2200.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/7226&h=1104&w=2200&tbnid=fExPdl6U9BWYuM:&zoom=1&docid=3iNN4SeSdt7DjM&hl=en&ei=BOSjVZO_KYm5-AH-7oD4DQ&tbm=isch&ved=0CCAQMygFMAVqFQoTCJPRobDA2MYCFYkcPgodfjcA3w" rel="nofollow">http://www.google.ca/imgres?imgurl=http://images.pcgs.com/CoinFacts/06666371_1279576_2200.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/7226&h=1104&w=2200&tbnid=fExPdl6U9BWYuM:&zoom=1&docid=3iNN4SeSdt7DjM&hl=en&ei=BOSjVZO_KYm5-AH-7oD4DQ&tbm=isch&ved=0CCAQMygFMAVqFQoTCJPRobDA2MYCFYkcPgodfjcA3w</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>This is the Norweb coin, after it was conserved, and offered for auction in 2008, it did not sell. <a href="http://coins.ha.com/itm/morgan-dollars/silver-and-related-dollars/1893-s-1-ms67-ngc/a/1104-2366.s" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/itm/morgan-dollars/silver-and-related-dollars/1893-s-1-ms67-ngc/a/1104-2366.s" rel="nofollow">http://coins.ha.com/itm/morgan-dollars/silver-and-related-dollars/1893-s-1-ms67-ngc/a/1104-2366.s</a></p><p><br /></p><p>This is the Norweb coin when it was offered and sold in 2011 -</p><p> <a href="http://coins.ha.com/itm/morgan-dollars/silver-and-related-dollars/1893-s-1-ms67-ngc/a/1158-7332.s" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/itm/morgan-dollars/silver-and-related-dollars/1893-s-1-ms67-ngc/a/1158-7332.s" rel="nofollow">http://coins.ha.com/itm/morgan-dollars/silver-and-related-dollars/1893-s-1-ms67-ngc/a/1158-7332.s</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The Norweb coin has since been downgraded and put in an NGC MS66 slab.
