<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 592421, member: 15309&quot;]Not unique, but close to it.&nbsp; To my recollection, the UHR&#039;s were all proofs and would not be designated MS65.&nbsp; The one I recall which was PF69 sold for almost $3 million dollars (see link below).&nbsp; Excuse me if I don&#039;t believe that you have a million dollar coin and don&#039;t know it.&nbsp; Your coin is undoubtedly a high relief St Gaudens Double Eagle.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coins.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=392&amp;Lot_No=6522&amp;type=&amp;ic=" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=392&amp;Lot_No=6522&amp;type=&amp;ic=" rel="nofollow">http://coins.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=392&amp;Lot_No=6522&amp;type=&amp;ic=</a></p><p><br /></p><p>In regards to your inquiry.&nbsp; I would definitely sell a coin such as yours through Heritage.&nbsp; This is a monster coin with a value near $50K.&nbsp; It will automatically be entered into a signature auction and will probably be a featured item in the auction.&nbsp; I have listed two links to some high relief Saints that were sold by Heritage recently.&nbsp; One with a flat rim like yours, and the second has a wire rim.&nbsp; I have also copied the catalog reference for the wire rim which explains the difference between the two coins.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coins.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=1104&amp;Lot_No=2509" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=1104&amp;Lot_No=2509" rel="nofollow">http://coins.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=1104&amp;Lot_No=2509</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coins.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=1110&amp;Lot_No=2365" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=1110&amp;Lot_No=2365" rel="nofollow">http://coins.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=1110&amp;Lot_No=2365</a></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="color: Red"><b>1907 $20 High Relief, Wire Rim MS65 PCGS.</b> Price guides and reference books divide the 1907 High Relief twenties into two subtypes: Wire Rim and Flat Rim. In reality, both types were struck from the same dies and by the same process. The rim variations were actually the result of an incorrect combination of milling and planchet size. The first 8,000 or so High Relief double eagles struck under the aforementioned arrangement displayed a fin, or partial wire rim, particularly on the obverse, and were considered flawed. The problem was readily addressed by Mint Director Leach. As explained by Roger Burdette in his<i> Renaissance of American Coinage, 1905-1908</i>:</span></p><p><span style="color: Red"><br /></span> </p><p>BTW, I apologize for my cynicism, but I sincerely hope this is not a joke.&nbsp; Please understand that it is extremely rare for someone to pop on a coin chat site with little knowledge about coins claiming to own a $50K coin and not know it&#039;s value.&nbsp; If you are not joking, I wish you the best in the sale of the coin and my prayers are with your friends daughter.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
