<p>[QUOTE="Mac McDonald, post: 7673247, member: 117420"]Genuine, legit, real, authentic, etc...VERY nice for $20! Went to a rural (my area) Indiana estate/farm auction this past Sat. and raw/worn 1921 Morgans were bringing over $40 ea and other regular worn dates were in the mid-high $30s. An 1895-S raw gold dbl-eagle in high AU-MS with beautiful natural luster fetched $2,450...not too bad for a sparsely-attended, locally-advertised auction out "hicksville" way in a county of just 40k. Been debating but think I'll go this way for my coins...no buyer/seller fees, etc...just a flat 10-12% commis (still) to the auctioneer...and by the time I'd wait at my age to pay for all the fancy/risky $tuff of grading, photography, shipping, advertising, extra fees and more plus 30%-plus commission for the big-boy auction house, I'll be way less-stressed, still alive, and well down the road ahead. Please excuse my brain-keyboard ramblin'.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
