Getting the coin numerically graded was essential. Probably not a CAC candidate, but you never know; they may see it the same way.

 

Well I was in the camp of no way this grades. I think the real question now is what's it really worth?

 

Rest assured that it will probably sell for a huge discount despite its rarity. Even though PCGS has its own fair share of dogs in straight graded plastic, this is why NGC is viewed as looser on gold.

 

We're all just jealous. ..

 

I thought it would grade. Gold is so soft that it does not take much to get some hits on them. A medium circulated gold will look a lot worse than a medium circulated other metal.

 

Plus it's a larger size gold piece , put large and soft together and you get larger hits .

 

You mean that doesn't mean $110 to $112 .

 

Looks like a lot worse hit in the pic in the plastic. Regardless a killer coin

 

I agree. For the guide value, you could have a nice down payment on a house as opposed to an overpriced problem coin.

 

Wow I didn't realize it was that rare. NGC has only graded 6 of these total with the highest grade of AU55.

 

Is nice but I'd rather have a high relief st gaudens . And a nice capped bust $10 and $5 or maybe a high relief and a small eagle gold. Be the same money or less

 

Well as of late last week I purchased the coin in question. We will be working with a very well known dealer in branch mint gold and hopefully be placing this coin soon.

 

Cool glad it graded and you were able to make a deal

 

I wish you luck. Doug Winter is the one I would trust the most on this. I sure hope you are referring to him.

 

I think it looks fine , and anyone putting together a set of Coronet Eagles should be proud to own it .

 

XF 30 maybe,too bad she went on that date w/ Dexter,eh?

 

I think details

 

I am not at all surprised that the coin graded. Had it been a common date, there would have been reason to "detail" the coin for the gouge alone. However, it is a nice example of a very difficult date, and TPGs are always aware of the survival rate of key date coins. Thus, since it is a nice looking coin, despite the gouge, it graded, and I think it was the right call. Try finding another 1864s that is as nice--they are hard to find.
