[QUOTE="Speedy, post: 114277, member: 705"]I would have a few problems... #1---a coin of that value would normal be slabbed....why isn't this one...is there a problem. #2---the auction is private #3---I've seen this seller sell many many high dollar coins...and all of them are either raw or in off brand grading Co. slabs...I think that he might run it himself. #4---not a good return. The toning looks ok....but could it be a PL and not a Proof? Maybe PF64/5 for a grade...unless I missed something. I would hold out on this coin....the value is pretty high....and when buying a coin of this value I would suggest getting it slabbed...even if your going to crack it out. The mintage is low--but not too hard to find...2 are on Heritage right now. It looks like PCGS and NGC has graded around 350 of these 1890 Pf Halves...not counting ANACS or PCI. I think it should be pretty easy to find one on down the road. Speedy[/QUOTE]
