Wait a minute, there is a such a thing as a gold Eisenhower dollar. You owe him an appology. There is a "buy it now" price of $6.95...... http://cgi.ebay.com/1976-EISENHOWER...mQQptZCoins_US_Individual?hash=item1c0da405bb
Apparently Christie's, realizing too late the mistake that they made, resorted to selling it on eBay.
He's back!! OK, this is just a personal thing at this point... After not responding to previous taunting, I received an unsolicited email stating the following... Hey Buddy, Just talked to the auction house, the golden goose, i mean IKE has just pasted a carbon 19 dating test and they also did a computed axial tomography[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] scan (CAT). The tests prove it 22K solid gold and 30 years old! We had it removed from Christie's Auction House and moved it to Stacks Rare Coins. Its going to be in the January 11, 2010, New York City International Auction by Stacks. Please let me know if i can have them send you a catalog and bidding paddle??? THIS IS GOING TO BE BIG,,,IM BETTING Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal gets it for a cool million!!!! ***NOW THATS WHAT I CALL COIN TALK!!!!***[/FONT] The hillarious thing about this is that I'm actually FROM Wolfeboro, NH...one of two sites that Stacks has locations. I've sent my Dad (who still lives there) up to talk about his particular offering. I can't wait to get the official result of his search...which as we all know is going to be a giant "we've never heard of such of thing". Looking at this "smackdown" it also appears that he found this thread online since he references it. This is just too good. *LOL* I know this is a somewhat fruitless thread, and I'm sorry...but as I mentioned earlier I love defrauding the frauds... Thanks for humoring me.. Cheers, Christian
Oh, and I have to add.... This guy is actually excited about telling me that he sold on Craigslist for $1000 what will go at auction for over a million. If I were him I'd be embarrased about the crappy deal I gave myself! LOL! ~Christian
And if he's now going to Stacks with it, why on earth would he have put it up on craigslist? This guy is a hoot!
