    I had a customer put this piece on consignment. It's not something you see every day. I'll post some better pics tomorrow.

    Enjoy!

    Very nice indeed. Got to see one of these in person once at the local shop. Price was just a little(okay who are we kidding a lot) out of my league.

    I have one of these in my collection, though much lower in grade, and they are cool as all get out.

    it's still AMAZING you can afford one even in a lower grade! My parents freak out at even a $200 buy...

    Personally I think Gobrecht's seated coinage with no stars (pattern Gobrecht dollar and no stars dime and half dime) is very close to the best looking American coin of all time!!

    I also have a repaired one, the eagle faces upward instead of horizontal. It's my second favorite type coin.

    For sheer attractive design it's a tough call for me between this the trade dollar and the st Gaudens $20 but my favorite type coin is the flowing hair ( I have a 1795 dollar and half ) hoping for a 1794 $1 someday if I strike it rich!
